Since getting engaged, my fiance and I have adopted the most engaging puppy dog on God's green earth. He is a cute, clumsy, and energetic labrodoodle whom we could not love more. This afternoon as my fiance was taking out the trash, Griffin (our doggy) ran outside behind him and got hit by a car. I cannot tell you the gambit of emotions that surged through me when I heard he was hit.
After several hours in the emergency room with him, the vet discharged Grif with 4 bottles of medicine. He luckily did not break anything, however, he is severely bruised and has bad roadburn on his belly where he was dragged. Additionally he has some soft tissue damage to his knee which we will have to watch out for. Overall though, he is okay.
When I was 5 I was hit by a car while in Germany with my mom. Like Grif, I was bruised with a couple of scratches, but overall okay. Doctors said I was lucky, and that an angel was watching over me. I cannot help but think the same thing about Griffin today. My Big Guy is going to be fine by the grace of God. Thankful hardly expresses how I feel.
