Kabob-a-dog

The other day Cali took out 2 wooden kabob sticks from our pantry to play the "drums". Being the great mom that I am, I was just ignoring it. Derek came in and said 'that is a bad idea, those are used to stab through meat," so I cut of the tip and said have at it(wonderful parenting). After she was done I told her to throw them away and not use them again. Since she is five, she waited a day and then took a new pair out when I was doing the laundry. She got bored and dropped it on the ground, and wandered off.
I was in the middle of folding a shirt when I heard this horrific howling. I looked in the hallway and somehow our 4 lb. Papillon had managed to stab this stick through his body. I ran and grabbed him and tried to figure out how in the world this happened. Cali and Sawyer were upstairs and I could not fathom how Wiley had managed to stick a 12 in stick through his 6 inch tall body. Derek walked in about 30 seconds later with Soren and looked at what was going on and took Wiley to the vet. They were pretty amazed at what had happened and that he had miraculously had missed all his organs. So he his home, the kabob sticks have been thrown away and we have all learned our lesson about kids, dogs and sharp sticks.
