Last Saturday I wanted to be with daddy up on the couch, so he bent down to pick me up. I don't know EXACTLY what happened because it happened so fast, but as daddy lifted me up higher and higher, I fell all the way down to the hard floor!

It HURT!

I screamed and screamed, and daddy picked me up again and looked me all over. In a second I found myself in the truck with mommy and daddy rushing to my vet. I stopped yelping, but I kept closing my eyes and I guess mommy thought I was trying to go to sleep because she kept telling me to wake up. Really though it just hurt.

My vet gave me an "IV", and a "cathater", and told mommy and daddy to take me to the Emergency Pet Hospital just down the road. Daddy was pretty upset, but I was actually feeling a little better and wanted to go home, but mommy and daddy said it would be best if I stayed at the hospital for a while.

After eight hours in my cage with that stupid "IV" thing, mommy and daddy came to get me. Everyone at the hospital was very nice, and they checked me out real well so that mommy and daddy would be certain that I was OK.

And I am OK. Just now I tell daddy to BE CAREFULL!

Oh, and if YOU have a Chihuahua, or any other little dog like me, be carefull too. We are very delicate, and a fall could kill us if we land wrong. We aren't cats afterall!
