Whistler jumped opff the roof
« on: November 05, 2007, 11:58:11 AM »
We had shut the dogs in the garden whilst we moved some furniture, and Whistler got onto the potting shed roof and from there onto the garage roof. I spotted him and tried to get him to sit, my OH tried to call him back across the potting shed roof, He (OH) told me to go indoors so Whistler could not see me so i did but he then gathered himself and leapt off the garage roof about 8' plus. He leapt onto concrete his front legs buckled landed on his jaw and got up as if to say "no one locks me out" and seems non the worse for wear.
Another area to barricade off he is fearless, but it scared the c--p out of me.

 :o

Check him over as I'm sure you are / have done

Fern ran and slipped up a step and broke her jaw but apparently didn't seem worse for wear herself (sorry, but think you ought to get him checked out properly as he landed on concrete front legs buckled and jaw hit)

Hope he is ok and you are too  :D

I hope he is, ok.  I'd also be tempted to get him checked over especially if he landed on his jaw.

Stooopid dogs! Woofie once jumped out of a first floor window onto concrete. 

He was ok except for a ripped claw but we took him to the vets for a once over.

Hope Whistler is ok and that your heart rate has returned to normal!

He's seems fine we went out to the Forest yesterday, then the beach. He's eating like a horse and fine aw walkies this morning & lunch time I think its because he is very supple, no problem with his teeth or jaw just fine.

Whistler may be fine but they'd have had to take me to the hospital with a heart attack!

Glad he's ok! Just keep an eye on him, sometimes the 2nd or 3rd day after is when they really start to hurt!
