It’s okay, I have to see a lawyer this week too.

[rottndog]

I normally hate lawyers....But when I need one...

Do not panic.
I/We have panicked enough for everyone.

Rush was hit by a car this afternoon, around 4:30.
He is resting on the big dog bed right now, with the leg that was run over/dragged through gravel, thoroughly cleaned and bandaged. The biggest problem right now is the debris in the wounds.
He needs to have the bandages changed every day for the next 4 days while we figure out how his leg will heal. Apperently, dogs skin heals differently than ours.
Then, we can decide if he needs stitches on his skin.
My DH threw a tourniquet on him, and the vet said it might have saved his life.

Heh.
It could have been his head.
We are so lucky!

Whatever you do, don't give him Oxycontin.

[fanfan]

I know.

It’s addictive.

[fanfan]

I know.

It’s addictive.

[fanfan]

I know it twice more now.

[NicknamedBob]

It’s especially addictive in repeated doses.

Good luck, but don’t expect him to have learned anything from this incident. The only thing he’s likely to learn is how to milk his affliction for your sympathy.

[rottndog]

Tell Rush “WOOF!” for me.

[fanfan]

LOL. Good point.

More like we've learned. Not to let him out of our sight. ;-)

"More like we've learned. Not to let him out of our sight."

I understand. You're subscribing to "Rush, 24/7".

Was that Scotch with eggs?

Nope. Wikipedia: A Scotch egg consists of a cold, hard-boiled egg removed from its shell, wrapped in a sausage meat mixture, coated in breadcrumbs, and deep-fried. The dish was invented by the London food shop Fortnum & Mason, in 1738.[1] Contrary to popular belief, it is not a Scottish dish. Scotch eggs are commonly eaten cold, typically with salad and pickles.

6 hard boiled eggs
1 lb. spicy sausage meat
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. dried basil
1/2 C flour, divided
1 C breadcrumbs
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. paprika
2 eggs, beaten
oil for frying

Scotch Eggs

Makes 6 Eggs

Peel the eggs and set aside. Mix sausage and spices in a small bowl. Divide sausage into 6 equal portions, set aside. Mix breadcrumbs with salt, pepper and paprika, set aside.

Dry each egg with a paper towel, then roll lightly in flour to coat. Take one portion of sausage and using hands, shape a coating around the hard boiled egg, completely enclosing it (see photos). Roll in flour again, then dip in beaten egg then roll in breadcrumb mixture. Repeat with remaining eggs.

Heat about 2-3 inches of oil in a large skillet. Fry eggs, turning frequently, until golden brown on all sides. Drain on paper towels. Let cool slightly before serving. To serve, cut each in half and serve with some good mustard.

We are so lucky!

We lost a half-grown shepherd many years ago. He was gorgeous, and going to be BIG, but when he escaped the yard onto the highway, it wasn't enough.

[fanfan]

Heh.

In more ways than one.

I’ll see you tomorrow Bob.

Thanks, eh?
