My Day :(
Posted: 04-05-07 14:19pm

It began with me thinkin gi was going to my sister's house to make easter cakes with my neice and nephew which was all good and i was happy about but then my sister called to say she was on the way to hospital with my neice. Basically my sister was running both taps to fill up the sink to give the kids a wash before getting dressed, she turned around for litrally 2 seconds to stop her son from throwing things in the bath and suddenly .Faith was screaming, she had climbed up onto the toilet seat and tried to wash her hands by herself, using only the hot tap...... My sister put her hand in cold water imedietly and then soaked a towel in cold water and wraped it over her arm. her hand has doubled in size Shocked So i went to look after my nephew while she was a t hospital. Thankfully .Faith is going to be ok and they don't think there will be any perminant scarring.
Then when i got home i went to take my dog out for a walk. He's a big dog already even though he's only 7 months so i can see why he's intimidating but he wouldn't hurt anyone, he just wants to play. So i threw a ball for him as you do when your on a walk, he went running over the field to get it and then suddenly there was this woman shouting at me telling me that .Murphy shouldn't be aloud off the lead and that he's a danger to people, he hadn't done anything! He hadn't jumped up at her, barked or anything! Grrr i hate people like that

Awww I'm sorry hun. Some people just see german shephards as intimidating because they're often used as guard dogs. Then again some people just don't like big dogs regardless of the breed. I hope your niece gets better soon.. poor little thing =(

I'm sorry about your niece! I hope she feels better soon.

I kind of understand where the lady is coming from. I had two pits and I never let them off the leash in public. The few times my husband did it I tore him a new one. Everyone thinks that their dog is harmless, but the truth is you can never be sure. You know how your dog will react to you not how your dog will react to other people. I had a terrier once that I swore would never bite. She was the happiest, friendliest dog I had ever seen and she got along with everyone except my husband. She bit him. That lady was probably just afraid, I would be too. I know my dogs, but I don't know anyone else's. Were you at a dog walk or just a field?

Just at a fielld up the road from my house where it's very common to see people walking dogs. It just annoyed me so much that he hadn't actually done anything, if he had jumped up or barked i would understand but he was just quite happy walking back to me with a ball in his mouth.
My neice .Faith had the bandages taken off yesterday to check for blistering but there wasn't any, my sister needs to keep her arm in a bandage when it's really sunny throughout this summer just to be on the safe side but other than that there will be no scarring and she's going to be fine

I'm glad she's okay! Burns are nothing to mess around with. I stuck a hairpin in a socket when I was three and I've still got a black mark on my left middle finger to this day because of it. My whole hand was burnt and my fingers looked like split, charred hot dogs. I still remember that pain of that very clearly. Laughing

The doctor said that if anything she'll have a scar of about 2cms across her thumb, so not alot to worry about thank god.
