Default I shouldn't laugh (semi OT)

Dave just got an email from a friend who had to rush his dog to the
vets this morning.....Luckily dog is okay, bit bruised and grazed but
nothing major..... apart from maybe canine pride

Reason? The dog after years of completely ignoring it for some unknown
reason tried to go out through the cat flap...umm....John says he
isn't the brightest of dogs but....He's half German Shepherd and not a
small dog by any stretch of the imagination so of course, he got
stuck...they had to hacksaw part of the door off to get him free and
even take him to the vets with the cat door still wrapped round his
neck (John didn't want to try and get it off with a hacksaw and a
panicking dog he would much rather do it where if he slipped there
was a vet on standby as it was the vet gave the dog a mild
tranquillizer so they could remove the cat door) apparently when John
walked in with his dog complete with cat door around his neck (the
dogs not John's) people in the waiting room choked with laughter and
even the vet and the vet nurses had severe trouble keeping a straight
face!

Anyway as I said dog is fine and John is now freezing to death (he
lives on Bodmin Moor and they've been having snow) because he can't ge
the door fixed until Monday and the only thing he could find to cover
where they had to hacksaw the door apart is some cardboard.....

The dog is in mortal danger until Monday through as the 3 cats are not
pleased with the fact there is now a howling draft coming in through
the kitchen door right next to the Aga, which is usually a favourite
place in cold weather

Perhaps we'd better purr they don't kill him before Monday

A situation that is far more funny to hear about than to live with.

him to make it until a new door is in place.
