So there is good luck and bad luck and there is Cooper luck.
So on Saturday we had it arranged that our sitter would take the kids to Golfland / Sunsplash for 4 hours so we could get a break. We planned to go out to lunch which we hadn't done for months. Well just before we left I took Cooper out side with me to clean the pond. I tied him up under a tree for about 20 minutes in the shade where I usually have a pole to tie him too.
Everything was fine until we got inside and he suddenly started to howl. I couldn't see anything was wrong, and as i held his head he started shaking it and ran away. I found him upstairs on our bed with his head between 2 pillows, so it was apparent he got something stuck in his ear.
So, off to the emergency vet I go and get home just in time for my wife and I to have peanut butter and jelly sandwiches before the kids got home..
