For those of you who haven't met Ripley... Here he is. Typically he is happy, excited, well behaved and loves to play. He has been a part of our family since before we were a family.
Blake proposed with the ring tied around an eight week old Ripley's neck. It was perfect!!
As I mentioned Ripley loves to play. He is a daddy's pup and loves to wrestle with Blake ALOT!
So, last night while watching Ugly Betty the two of them were playing in our room and Ripley got a little too excited and without looking ran straight (HARD) into the door frame in our room. He shook it off and we thought nothing of if until we saw blood on the carpet. Upon further inspection we see that Rippers has busted his face wide open. I was so sad and immediately brought him to the veterinary ER. He was such a trooper and only barked when they put him in the kennel for a few minutes. He was sedated and a flap of skin was removed and FIVE staples are now in my little babies face. I was so sad I stayed up all night checking on him. Which was rather pointless since he was so sedated he was all but unconscious.
Below: After having to carry Ripley up the stairs and place him in his bed.... he didn't even move.
I hope he was comfortable. :(
Close up of poor Ripley's staples.... He is so tough but sometimes he needs extra love.
