Story Problem


If a 203 pound Mastiff runs at the speed of a yard a second towards his owner who is standing 10 feet away and rams his basketball-sized head into the inside of his owner’s knee as she steps forward to (stupidly) try to cut him off at the pass, her knee will:

A. have a bruise the size of a grapefruit;
B. hurt when she walks, sits, stands or lays down;
C. turn the most atrocious shades of purple and blue within an hour;
D. not heal for the next month, during the onset of ‘shorts season’; or
E. All the Above.

Some lessons must apparently be learned the very hard way.

Ewww- bummer. As someone who bruises when people look at me, shorts season is always a hard one. Do I just suck it up and not care that my legs are so displeasing, or cover them up lest L be hauled in for wife abuse?

Owwwww. But that is a cute dog!! Hope the knee gets better soon. In my medical opinion, you should ice it. :)

You have a TV dog! What a beautiful dog, he looks like he should be on TV.

He looks big, but not scary, which is probably what lulled you into thinking you could stop him with your knee. Is that a picture of him in the corner as punishment?

I hope you didn't hurt your knee too badly and that you heal quickly!

How could anyone stay mad at a sweet face like that?
