I stepped on him!

While running with our dog Geo on the beach I accidentally stepped on him! I was wearing my heavy timberland boots and I accidentally stepped on his front right foot. Geo started screaming in pain and I just went down on my knees and started hugging him. Fadibou was there with his dog Miki and that helped Geo forget about the pain a bit. While there we called the International Veterinary Hospital because according to their brochure they are open 24 hours a day in case of emergency, well thats bullshit. They told me I couldn’t bring Geo in because they were closed and I would instead have to bring him in tomorrow morning. What the fuck is that load of crap. If I get into an accident I go to the hospital right away, I don’t wait till the next day. Why do dogs have to wait till the next day?? I need to find a new fucking vet, they really pissed me off. Geo is back home now I don’t think his foot is broken but he is threading on it very lightly and is very quiet and sad. I think he is in shock from the incident and is really exhausted. I also think he might have either fractured his foot or sprained it. If by tomorrow morning he is still not stepping on his foot I am going to take him to the vet. It really sucks and I am really fucking clumsy.

    You were running on the beach with your heavy timberland boots???

    I don’t think there’s a lot the vet can do, but Geo will be fine. He’ll forget all about it in a few days.

    Kuwaiti… Dogs have feelings too, Dogs are a lot better then some of the people i have come across in my life..

    Yeah Mark don’t worry, happened to me once with my dog in Lebanon, he didn’t come near me for a day or two, but then suddenly out of the blue i woke up one day to find him trying to drag me out of bed from the tip of my PJs cos he wanted to play .. i guess he missed me…. I miss randy :(
