    It sucks getting old......and clumsy

    Some of you might remember this little guy from last year



    well he's 100bs now and a healthy rambunctious pile of super charged GO! and the source of three of my visits to the emergency room this year:

    1st - tripped (over him as he chased a squirrel) hiking up the mountain........ small fracture of my orbital bone on my left eye
    2nd - yanked me off my bike while taking him on a run.......3 cracked ribs and a torn ACL in my right shoulder ( not going to have surgery)........small inconvenient pain is just a part of life
    3rd - about 2 hours ago, tripped over him again and smacked my head into the corner of the door... 9 staples i my head

    MY wife says it's my fault for wanting a big dog dog, and that if i was a little more agile i would be able to "dance" around him when he gets stupid.






    " never had staples before on a bad cut, usually sutures, which i take out myself, doctor gave me the tool to remove them........ i guess iearn something new

    Damn, sounds like you've got your hands full with him.

    Got a pic of him now?

    Sounds like you'd have been better off with a goldfish...easier on the body all the way around...

    3 times and you haven't figured it out yet. Maybe these will make you feel better.

    Beautiful dog. (But, a goldfish would have been much safer for you....)

    You're right, i've been injured more times in the last 4 months than in the last 10 years, my wife says i should have him neutered to calm him down, just can't bring my self to do that. If i wanted a nutless dog, i would have gotten a female

    I am constantly being told to be quiet.
