I took my dogs to a French Bulldog playdate for the first time since last March. Beren really enjoys these. Cricket’s just along for the ride.
Frenchies play really well together. They’re not into fighting and they don’t bark too much. There were about 30 of these little piggies romping around having fun and everyone seemed to be getting along. One precocious piebald grabbed a water bottle and enticed the others to chase him from one playroom to another. Beren joined in on this and I tried to keep sight of him but he was blending in with the other brindles.
The pack darted behind a fake tree but I could see his butt and rear legs. All of a sudden someone said, “Whose dog is this?”
Uh, oh, I thought. What did he do?
I hurried over and Beren was lying on the floor with a mouth full of blood!
Luckily, it looked worse than it was. Somehow he had cut his tongue. I never found out how. I’ve never heard of a dog biting its own tongue, so either another dog bit his tongue, or he got hold of the plastic bottle and it had cracked.
Beren is fine, but that was quite a scare.

Wow, I had no idea dogs could bite their own tongues! I thought only people were capable of that. ;)
BTW, did you have your dog before you had your child? If so, how did you introduce the dog to the baby? I want to make sure everything goes well with the dogs when I bring this baby home.
