Watch out for dogs

My Poor baby got attatcked by a dog yesterday at work. The dog attatcked him and he turned to try to shield himself and the dog tore into the back of his arm! It was pretty bad and definintly ruined his whole day! He cleaned it up and you could see one bite went especially deep and you could see a little bit of the tissue. I sent him to the urgent care so he could get some antibiotics and a tetanus shot. After being thouroughly annoyed by their " excellent" care he now gets to take a nice 10 day course of antibiotics. they told him that one of them could have used stitches but they just put steri strips over it instead. So that was an exciting day for us yesterday! I had to make dinner for someone in the ward, while sean got bit, then we get home to find out they want us to speak in church on sunday along with a missionary farewell, ah good day....It looks better now that its clean and steri stripped. Bad place for a dog bite though.

Stupid dog!!! That makes 3 people in our family who have been bit by a dog in the past few years! Well, Christy would tell you, "at least he didn't have to get rabies shots." And Natalie would tell you, "at least it's not on his face." Oh and I guess dad might chime in with, "at least it didn't through him off a motercycle. " That is a pretty nasty looking bite though. AND, you about gave me a heart attack. When I read the first line, I thought for a moment that Jade got bit by a dog.

Yep - dogs. Not good for much. :) (Except Buster, of course... :)

That sucks I didn't know that happened! He's gonna be a little timid next time he works with a dog at the house! Poor guy!
Those pix of Jade so cute! She's beautiful!

Wow poor Sean. I was with Cherie though. I almost thought it was gonna be baby Jade. Not that it's any better it's him but still.
