re: what.

**Stinky!**

"One afternoon, we were watering the plants on the balcony, and asalways with the sun, Mario wanted to come out with us. Then, he wantedto go back in. I wasn?t really paying attention to what was going on,and I just slammed the glass door.

That?s when I heard it ? the highpitched wailing. It was Mario on the other side with his tail caught inthe door jamb. I opened the door as fast as I could, and his littletail was hanging at an angle about 3 inches down from the tip, andbleeding. You could see the bone.

I was hysterical. I could not stopsobbing. We brought him up to the vet and they had to amputate abouthalf of his tail off. The poor vet?s office. I had just stopped cryingwhen they came out and asked what happened, then I started sobbingagain and could hardly get it out. And Mario, standing there wagging,like nothing happened, getting blood all over the office. The vet toldme these things happen all the time, and to not worry."

1. That poor dog.

2. Transitions lenses should be outlawed.

I don't think that dog has any teeth left, either.

I don't understand how she let this happen. Granted, I've almost stepped on Ax because he is underfoot all the time, but I would never slam a dog in a door.

**Stinky!**

This is exactly why I never slam a door (besides not wanting to slam a damn door). I have a habit of making sure nothing (including my dog) is in it.

One of my dogs has a kink in his tail.  He was like that when we got him.  I'm guessing something like this happened to him, too.  I can see how it could easily happen.

This is also another benefit to having a larger dog.

I don't have to worry about this. Pugs curl their own tails up when in motion.

Its like they are more evolved versions of dogs. Pugs ancestors knew the door is dangerous. I always have to watch Lily's tail when she comes in the house, I've almost closed the door on her tail, she just stops in the doorway with her tail outside.

WTDuck?

Herbert has learned to strategically place her tail outside her crate when she doesn't want me to close it.

How could she not have seen her dog standing close enough to the door to get his tail shut in it?

Cant_wait!

That dog is three inches wide on a fat day. I could easily see how she didn't notice it. Hell, I've almost closed Su in the sliding glass door before, and she's a chubby ball of fluff. (I check now.) It was an accident. Ya'll are making it sound like she came after his tail with an Axe.
