Doesn't he look harmless?

Looks can be deceiving, for those who do not know I have to walk with a cane. I have dystonia and for the last few years I have had to give in and use the trusty cane. So this morning before work I had to drop my beloved Tucker off at the groomers. This morning it was raining like crazy, getting him to the car was no easy task but we both made it. Then after work I had to pick him up as my DH was working out of town. Picking him up was the problem after paying the bill I went to turn around he somehow managed to trip me and I went flying....cermaic tile is pretty hard when you hit it as hard as I did. WOW what a spectacle I must have been. But I must say the staff and customers were great and helped me to my feet. Someone else put him in the car. Now I think I will have a hot bath and maybe a nap. I've had enough for one day!
Stay posted I am sure there will be more stories about my lovely Irish Setter.

Kerry, Kerry! Hoping you are okay; probably very sore in the morning. I'm sure Tucker is beside himself for causing such a scene and you spilling on the floor. Take care and easy does it for you.

Thank you Jayne and Colleen. I am just happy I did not break my glasses or any bones. From now on DH is taking the dog to get his bath and cut. NOT ME!!

Ouch, I've had a couple of falls recently and it's a real shake up, hope the bath worked its magic!

He's beautiful, and he looks so innocent. I'm sorry you took a tumble, and I hope you feel better today!!

Oh no! Glad to hear you're alright. I bet Tucker felt bad :o(

Ouch. I do hope the soreness is minimal.
I am very sure that Tucker didn't mean any harm. He was just so excited to see "Mommy" and to go home. These big goofy guys love us so much and want to be near us all the time don't they? :) If Tucker is anything like Rory all I have to do is say Owwwww. And he has to come right over with his head down to make sure I'm okay. :) Gotta love them.
Take care and hope all is well now.

I hope you're alright Kerry! Tucker is beautiful but he looks like a lot of dog to handle. Glad you won't have to do this on your own now.
