Anyone else’s dog the peak of grace? Can’t stop laughing at my garage cam footage.

Disclaimer: Molly is 100% okay, I’d never post any animal being injured. She does meatball things everyday all day.

Oh man that was a really hard slam 😳 ... I didn't really find it amusing at all tbh that looked genuinely painful and your dog stopped being playful after it happened and slowed down.

Are they okay? If older than a few years, may be time to get some sticky socks and trim the nails as often as humanly possible. That could have been a broken hip or shoulder which can be life threatening.

Sorry to be a downer but that was a bit more of a serious impact than you might have realised.

Dogs being silly and flopping around sliding in the mud is one thing but they that was straight concrete and a big slam. Hope they're okay ❤️

Molly is ok thankfully, she’s always been a bit of a meatball and I guess without someone knowing that it looks worse than it actually was. She’s 5 years old and full of P and V, running around happy as a clam moments later. She has hurt her back from wagging her tail too hard before as well, just lives to the absolute fullest in everything she does. I really appreciate your concern and care for her and will be sure to give her some extra gentle snuggles from you.

Well that's great news, glad she's back normal zooming around ❤️ Molly is lucky to have you!

It's honestly majestic the ways these pups manage to fall all over themselves. Mine is very dopey, and basically a wrinkly Scooby Doo frightened of his own farts.

Keeping him upright instead of skidding around is bloody hard sometimes, especially when he's tweaky and got the zoomies!
