[Editor’s note. The following comment appeared on one of my recent posts. It is from our old friend Putz, who has stopped blogging. I decided to promote it from comment to full post status. With ruffles and flourishes, and wiping a tear from my eye, I give you, in all his Utarn glory...Putz. --RWP]

[Editor’s note. Now that’s the old Putz I remember! What a great story! Doctors always attempt to explain away miracles, you know, especially Christmas ones...terriers have flexible necks, that’s a good one! --RWP]
As the owner of a terrier, I can vouch for the flexibility of their necks. Ou dog, Jack, is quite capable of reaching a biscuit placed between his shoulders without resorting to skaing it off.
ReplyDeleteOf course, we had to have specially kicked by a mule beforehand.
Happy the K9 is OK! Christmas miracles are the best...I've known maybe one vet who would come out on Christmas to help a furry family member!
ReplyDeleteClassic Putz, and a story with a happy ending. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteSh. P., T. and B., and P. - An Ark. Stmpr., this story of Putz's will chase away the end of year blahs.
ReplyDeletelife keeps happening even though not blogging<><>this would have been a tradgedy because the only thing my daughter cares deeply for is her hearing dog who keeps her out of trouble as with the horse<><>he went after the horse to protect his charge, my dqaughter
