Ouchhh!

Poor Henry had a bit of an accident earlier today.

We were in the house laughing at Molly bombing around the living room at 200mph which was extremely funny when we heard a sort of dog sreaming noise from outside. After a moment of looking at each other asking 'What on earth was that?' Other Half and me ran outside to see what the matter was.

Poor Henry had jumped the fence which seperates the grass in the garden and was holding his front leg up and crying in pain. He had really hurt himself but we couldn't work out what he had done as he was so frightened that it was difficult to hold him still to have a look.

It seemed he didn't want to walk so Other Half lifted him over the fence and then I carried him into the house where we could take a better look and calm him down. He was so frightened and making little whimpering noises as I carried him in.

Once inside we realised that he had somehow scraped the inside of his front leg almost right down to his paw. It's really deep and has pulled the fur off but not actually cut his leg, it's more like a really bad graze. It also seems that he has bruised it quite badly as he's limping on it slightly.

He will be ok, just rather sore for a few days, although I think he'll most likely have a bit of a scar which will be a shame but at least he's going to be alright and he's been cuddling up to me on the sofa for most of the evening for extra special Henry cuddles which are lovely.
