As someone who was a proud dog owner once, I think I can say that I have, on an occasion or two, spoiled my dog with cuddles and treats.
Okay, it happened a lot more than once, and he loved it every time. However, this meant that he might have become a bit over-dramatic when it came to these things.
Any time he was sick, we’d bring him lots of food and gifts, and he would immediately feel better in our presence.
Jean and her husband, Kirby, had found themselves in a similar situation when they were in their local park in North Carolina and something happened to their dog.
What Was The Injury
When they went to look at their dog, Jaqweenie, they noticed that something was wrong with him. He held up one of his hind legs, and it started shaking.
His owner quickly rushed to see what was happening. They examined his leg but didn’t see any injuries. They suspected it could have been broken somehow.
Without wasting a moment, they took him to the ER, but it was full, and they couldn’t accept him right away.
So, his parents had to change plans quickly. They turned their car around and went to a veterinarian clinic in North Carolina, where he received a thorough examination.
They first put a blood pressure cuff on Jaqweenie to see if everything was okay there. Then they examined his patella to see if maybe his knee popped out of the joint.
However, it was actually none of this. Everyone at the vet was stumped and wondered what it could have been.
It Was A Very Small Cut
After a while, one of the vets noticed that the pup had a very small cut on one of his paws. It was so tiny that it’s no wonder no one noticed it before.
It didn’t even bleed. The vets described it as a ‘paper cut’, but this small cut cost them $150.
The vets immediately placed a special bandage on his ‘injury’. Jaqweenie didn’t want to walk on his own, so his parents carried him.
They took him home, where he was given lots of cuddles and kisses by his parents and they could tell he was enjoying it.
Eventually, after he received enough affection from his beloved parents, he gathered enough strength to go into the kitchen and grab something to eat.
It was at this point that they realized everything was going to be okay for Jaqweenie and he would probably soon start acting like nothing ever happened.
They found this entire situation hilarious, so they posted a video about it on Instagram. In it, they said: “Bless his heart! I’m glad Jaqweenie has become so sheltered that the tiniest cut rocks his world.”
In the end, everyone thought Jaqweenie’s reaction to the ‘injury’ was funny, and a lot of people found it relatable. Jean and Kirby were happy to see such positive reactions to the video.
