3 and a half limbs?


I got home from work some weeks ago to hear my 4 month old puppy, candy (thats her name) whimpering. She was in serious pain.

Approaching her I found that her left limb was very swollen.

I could not imagine what could have happened so i summoned the two domestic staff,the gateman and the house keeper.

The gateman said the house keeper told him my two dogs (lilly and candy,who by the way are mother and daughter) had been fighting each other and lilly bit candys leg,however,he the gateman had heard nothing!

I was livid with rage cos the story sounded so very silly,i mean i was supposed to believe this sorry excuse for a lie?
I took a walk to my bedroom, attempted counting down from ten. it didnt work, so i summoned the help again and our conversation was something like this:

Me- now listen to me,you better tell me what actually happened to candy or you wont believe how far i'm willing to go on this matter
GM -Aunty, thats what she told me ,she said that the dogs were fighting and that lilly bit candy's leg
HK- Yes thats what happened
I was getting angrier by the minute my voice got louder
Me- You better start telling me some truth here, what kind of fight and then bite? You know these dogs,you know they only play,do you people think im stupid?

Then i said to the house keeper again,"tell me what happened,you hit that dog with a stick right?"
HK yes
Me- why? did it try to bite you?
HK -no
Me- did it eat or destroy anything that belongs to you?
HK-No
(By the way none of the above is possible as my dogs are not allowed to roam in the day time especially when im not at home)?
Me-Then why,why did you do that to the poor dog.(By this time i was crying.)
HK ??????@*& mumble jumble
Me- where did you get the stick
HK -outside the compound
Me-can i see it?
HK i threw it very far away
Me-Please tell me what really happened
HK more of nothing.
I drove candy to the vet, she had to wear a cast.she will have to for 6 weeks.it wasnt a minor dislocation.she might never walk well again.
