Christmas Calamity aka Doggie Drama
We all survived the madness of our Christmas week of running around like crazy...but some better than others! Today we went to my uncle and aunt's house for another family gathering. While we were opening gifts, Kaylee was playing with some opened ones on the floor and crawled over to one of the dogs who was sleeping. Apparently he did not appreciate being startled awake by her grabbing at his fur, so he snapped at her - getting a piece of her face in the process. She was/is fine; she only cried for about a minute. Seriously. By the time I'd gotten some ice for her, she was moving on and wanting to play with stuff again, incident behind her. So no ice, but we lathered her with Neosporin and gave her some baby Tylenol. Battle wound photos below. (Looks like she's sporting some sort of tribal warpaint.) We got home and she took a nap - it looked better when she woke up, and even better still before she went to bed for the night (after more ointment and tylenol). Hopefully it'll continue on the "looking better" trend, but I wouldn't be surprised if she has a colorful bruise show up soon.

it looks a little like Mike Tyson's face tattoo. yikes.
Ouch! We've been really lucky so far that Elena hasn't had the same experience with the way she loves dogs. Ava snaps at her, but she's never made contact. She's learned to stay away from Ava, so now poor Chubbs gets all the attention.
I'll be much more careful with new dogs.
hah, Justin - it reminded me of the goodyear logo (shoe w/wing), though I agree with the Tyson tattoo, as well.
