Dog Fight, Injured Child, and a Side of Public Nudity…. What a Circus!

So there I was……peacefully taking a shower and shaving. All of a sudden I hear my wife shrieking and screaming for me. After slicing my face with the razor and slipping/falling twice in the scramble to respond (having no idea what was afoot), I find myself naked on the back patio neck deep in a dog fight. Kids had made the mistake of letting big dog and little dog be in too close proximity during feeding. Little dog went for big dog’s food. Big dog attacked little dog. Mayhem ensued in the middle of our kitchen while little dog put a whipping on big dog. My oldest daughter made the mistake of trying to grab little dog’s collar right in the middle of it. Not knowing what/who had him, he instinctively snapped, tearing off her middle finger nail. Blood all over the floor, spattered on the walls, windows, etc. From there, the fight spilled out the door to the patio. That’s about the time I arrived. Just as I came piling out the door into this mess, my wife punts little dog like an NFL pro kicker…. right into the pool. A good move by her, which thankfully stopped things. Only then did I realize my state and run for a towel. The whole thing was quite a circus. Luckily, everyone is bandaged up and okay, but the girls are all pretty upset. We’ve warned the kids about dogs and food competition many times. Bet they follow instructions better now…

NO pictures or videos, PLEASE !
I am at a loss for words…..😏
Been there, done that, but with clothes on!
Yeah me too, but we'll think of somethin'…….
Funny story after it's all over. Quite scary and truly dangerous during the fight. Glad no further injuries and hope the finger heals quickly.
We have all been in your shoes at some point in time… Glad everyone is somewhat ok…

You tube material If had filmed it
would have hit the top 10
Over the years I have suffered some real nasty and painful bites breaking up dogs but i always took one for the team and saved on vet bills. LOL
the dogs would be so caught up fighting anything was a target sadly my hands were it to many times
I knew it was going to hurt from past experiences but would always get between and pull one dog away some times it involved me using my legs and arms to separate them
every time the dogs involved in the fights ( many different ones over the years ) had never show any aggression toward us but for what ever reason went all in in a fight with each other.
I truly think Jealous of attention not the food set them off
Now maybe is the time to give them some words about the dangers of public nudity. Think of what could be lost in a dog fight.
Many years ago.......my wife and daughter tried to break up a fight between our cat "Tuffy".......and a bigger alley cat. Even though my wife can swing a mean broom.......the two of them had not fared well......by the time all hostilities had ceased.
IIRC......together they stated........NEVER AGAIN!!😳😱
While reading this story I was hoping there would be a punch line at the end of it.
Fact is, Dog fights are no JOKE!! I hope your daughters finger heals quickly.
Very true. Although I’m sure the whole world heard the fight going down, I can only hope that our neighbors didn’t see the whole scene. Haha!
To late it’s already on YouTube, no only kidding. Animals have their own rules they live by. Even when animals are hurt and you only want to help them, they don’t grasp your intentions and can bite you if you cause them pain unintentionally. Hope your daughter’s finger heals up.
Thanks for not posting pictures. 🙁
…that's what I like to hear, a family having fun together…
For some reason the old song
"they call it the streak "
Comes to mind
Slip and fall ??
I’d ‘sue’ the dogs owner !! 🤣
Pecking order being established. You may delay it but you can't prevent it. One of those two have to be the boss and the other one not.
The vet bill can eat up a lot of $$ after deciding the winner
Please Toolman286, this is a family site. 😂
