Dog was knocked out.

[h2ofowlr]

I let my lab out as I was going to take him to the lake and throw the dummy.  He ran around the back end of my truck and I heard a yelp.  I called his name and he didn't come.  I walked to the back of the truck and he was out cold.  He caught my drop hitch square in the head.  He came to shortly afterwards a little disorientated.  Has this happened to anyone else.

yep poodle was so excited to go hunting he didn't pay any attention to the tailgate being closed and jumped right into it, didn't knock himself out but sure discombooblated him.....he still loves hunting more than anything on earth....lol

That reminds me of when my lab was overly excited and tried to jump into the bed of the pick-up via the side.  I have permanent scratch marks down the side of it.  The wife wasn't to happy when he did it as it was brand new.

My GSP ran full bore into my wire fence behind my house.  I wasn't there to witness it but my wife said it was pretty funny. She said he hit so hard she was surprised he didn't break his neck.

  Sorrry, thats just to funny



I can see my lab doing that to

When my GSP was a pup, he ran around the side of the house to see me pitch a ball to my little brother. He took off after the ball and caught a bat to the head. Don't know if he was knocked out but he sat there on his rear for about 3 minutes before he walked off.

My GSP did that with a neighbors cat. I went for a bike ride and the neighbors cat came out of the pond heading back to their property. The dog made an about turn and put on the boosters before I could even say anything. The next thing I know the cat makes the fence (feild fencing) goes right through. The dog, unfortunately, couldn't do the same squeeze as the cat and smashed the fence hard. He wander around with that look "where that bus come from" for a few minutes. Unfortunately it didn't seem to teach him anything and I saw him crash into another fence, but the results were better for him that time. Dumb dog.

I've lost two screen doors to excited dogs.... and they hate when you clean the glass door b/c they can't tell if it's opened or closed.

I had a rott that did that but I think the hitch ended with more damag than she did. She also ripped our sliding glass door screen completly out of the track and it caused it to be bent in half, funny. Also while hunting sage grouse in Wyoming my lab decided to take in after a jack rabbit and didn't see the ditch in front of her. She did three cartwheels and came back to me with the look like "that rabbit just kicked my @ss". Dogs are so fun to have around!!

My big Yeller Lab, Bubba the bucket brain... he has a problem with anything ball shaped. It comes from his addiction to tennis balls. Well, in his prime he was a little too focused on a tennis ball fetch once. Flat out, full tilt, then INSTANT stop against the tongue of a neighbor's tractor impliment. SMACK! Front shoulder. He hobbled around it, got the ball, and hobbled back with a big hole in his shoulder from a bolt head. Laughed hard but felt bad for him, he was really hurt for several days!

not meaning to laugh but that is funny

reminds me of this.

Years ago (70's) hunting doves opening day south of Moses Lake, I had my new lab pup Rice with me.  He was at a point in training where I was trying to make him steady to shot.  Well, first dove I dump, he takes off.  At the top of my lungs I yell at him to stop....... and at the exact time I yell he runs head first into a piece of upright concrete culvert hidden by tall grass.  Dazed and confused he looks back at me and sits.  Called him back in and then sent him on the retrieve.  I might add that after that incident he was reluctant to break.  Almost as if I had an almighty hand that could reach out and grab him...lol.  Sometimes you get lucky.

[Ragged Outdoors]

my lab tryed to run through the screen door one time, didn't come close to knocking him out but,  he knocked the screen door completely out of its track and onto the deck.

Does it count if the dog(s) knocked me out cold?  Clumber skulls > granite.  I have probably been knocked out cold by my own dogs twice - both times as I was leaning down to pcik up something from the floor just as dog was rising up and skulls meet.  Several other times just short of out cold, or just on my ass trying to remember my name.. I can't count how many times that has happened... probably due to repeated brain injury... lol

Additionally, once while working at a vet I was knocked out just short of cold when the vet tech I was helping lift a bullie breed near 100# up on the table said, "Ok, one... two..." and she lifted.  Who lifts on 2?!?  I had the head-end of the slightly sedated dog, and when his butt started upwards, he sort of swirled his head and it met my nose perfectly and UP.  I not only didn't drop the dog - though I immediately had the black curtain fall over my eyes - but I got him up and secure on the table before I collapsed on the floor blood shooting out of my nose, and blind as could be.  Tweety birds all around too, it seemed...  My sinuses didn't let up for a week after.

My dogs though? No so much as slows them down... I doubt it is possible to knock them out cold short of isoflourine.

Labs, rotts and pits go thru screen doors, screen windows like a hot knife through butter.
Had my nose broken by our pit, she also gave me a whopper of a black eye last fall.
I've seen glass sliding windows flex but not break.
Dented car doors etc.

Clumber, that reminds me of the time when my lab caught me in the side of the knee at full boar.  He laid me out.  I laid on the ground while my buddies were chuckling as I saw white flashing spots from my head hitting the ground.

My chesapeake was in the back yard when I was throwing the baseball for my son,  he swung for it, and she jumped for it.... The bat hit her on the side of the face, she made a small wimper and dropped to the ground.  When she got up the was all dizzy and having a hard time balancing, her head and eyes were going all over the place and back and forth.   I was nervous at first but she's ended up being fine.

i dunno, she seams kinda loopy to me

My buddy was throwing one of those hard plastic dummies for his yellow lab and the dog turned his head just as Jon swung to throw it and smacked him right in the side of the head. The dummy fell in the water about a foot from the dock and the dog couldn't find it.  CJ ran up and down the dock looking for it and as he came running back his legs started going all over the place and he finally just fell over. Jon picked him up to carry him back to camp and by the time we hit land, the dog came to and wanted down.

Suddenly everything seemed fine so Jon tossed the dummy about 10 feet from the dock and CJ retrieved. Tried that a half dozen times or so and CJ was fine, so Jon let it fly and CJ was swimming after it. We were talking and not paying close attention to the dog. When we looked back out all we saw was four legs and pink nose stickin out the water.

I've never seen a man go from bibs and boots to tighty whities so fast in my life. He swam the 50 yds or so to his dog and had to push him back to shore. The wives had heard all of the commotion and came running down with a couple of towels. As the dog hit the beach they wrapped both towels around the dog. Poor Jon was standing in 40 degree water up to his waste just shaking. When he reminded the girls that the water was cold and he wasn't going to be impressing anybody in his tighty whities they reluctantly gave him one of the towels.

CJ spent the rest of the day in his kennel by the fire and has been ok since. He's just as dumb as he was before it happened.

thats scarey but that is exactly what i would do if it were my dog

1. Dad's lab knocked himself silly against a tree (about 20 years ago) chasing a squirrel.

2.  Throwing ball for neighbor's German Shepherd about 10 years ago in their backyard.  He ran right through their 6 year old daughter and she did aerial 360.  Not quite out cold, but almost.

3.  Current lab made a "doggie-door" for himself through the back screen slider about a month ago.  Saw wife out there in the yard when he was still inside.  Got excited and wanted to go say "hi."  Full-tilt right on through.  Sigh.  (Tore the mesh of the screen, didn't even have the decency to just pull the spline out, so I can't fix it myself.)

Our boy dog was playing at the lake and jumped over a large triangle shaped rock , hitting is testicles in the process . I've never heard such an awful yelp!

[seth30]

I have two labs that love to bump into each other every time I throw the ball.
