     A man ends up in the hospital with multiple dog bites. His worst nightmare has come true .

The last thing I remember was tripping over this big rock and ending up on the ground, then a flurry of fur and teeth looiming above me ... that, and incredible pain.  That's when everything went black.

I woke up in a haze of pain and dizziness.  I was suprised to find myself in a hospital bed, a nurse and doctor looming overhead, bending down to look at me.

They didn't have to tell me what heppened.  I knew.  I already knew.  The Pomeranian and Irish setter who had been out for my blood had purposely attacked me.  No doubt I got bitten multiple times: my arms, legs, even my face hurt terribly.  I don't know why they sought revenge on me; all I knew was this: they were pissed off and clearly did not like me.  

That's when I put two and two together.  It was because I had killed their "friend".  Well, their friend was the cause of all my problems.  Ever since this nightmare first began, I have developed a healthy (or maybe not so healthy) fear of dogs.  Even little squirts like that cute little golden-red Pomeranian with the cat-sized legs was enough to set my heart racing and my blood pressure skyrocketing.

I knew I had to do something fast before someone else got attacked ... like, for instance, my WIFE or my kids.  I wondered if they were able to get out without a pack of wild dogs chasing them, nipping at them, as they had done to me.  I started crying as I remembered what had happened.

I was going to call the Humane Society and report of what had happened.  I would also probably face the wrath of dog lovers everywhere when they found out I had killed a dog because of how he acted towards me.  Well, I was willing to face the music.  I had to get relief from these dogs who had finally wreaked their revenge on me.

I also decided that when I recovered enough to return home, I was getting a cat.

But cats can be scary, too ... many people fear THEM. Better to have no pet at all ... well done, Karen.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

In the end they'll all be dancin'--all them ones that didn't die.... Dance with me in the shadows amidst the lightning and the thunder, and all that nu-cu-lar debris. See the big bang from the other side, and then open that cellar door. Go down into
