I know a lot of you are like me and let your whippets

sleep in your bed.

Last night Zana disturbed me and when i tried to

see what she was doing i couldn't move properly.

She seemed stuck to me.

 

I had pj's on and the trousers had two longer

than normal ribbons to hang them up by if you

wanted. Dont ask me how she done it but Zana

had got her head through the ribbon and it was

round her neck

 

She was trying to get free and i couldn't get to

her properly to help her. Then i remembered i

had a pair of scissors on the bedside table where

i'd been cutting labels out of some new clothes

that morning.

 

Thankfully i could reach them and cut the ribbon.

But i thought it worth a mention as if she was a

smaller pup and i was in a deep sleep who know

what could have happened. I will be checking my

bed stuff now and cutting of any long ribbons and

things......just in case.

im pretty sure there is a warning on the label or tag which tells you to cut those ribbons off :unsure:

im sure they are only there so the shop can display the clothes the way they want them to look best, same way the stitch up pockets so they sit nice, which your then suppose to open once you get them home.

i guess most people dont pay attention to these things though, (actually im wearing a t-shirt just now with those same ribbons at the sholders)

so glad zana is ok, :huggles:

I guess i must be thick then...........

No you are not thick Anne I wouldnt have thought about those ribbons either. Thanks for the warning :thumbsup:

One of my greatest fears is something happening to one of my precious whippies

If I can limit any risk to them, then I am very grateful for the tip off

Thank you Ann ........ I'm off upstairs with the scissors :thumbsup:

I'm so glad Zana is ok

 

[k4tie-d]

No no no Ann, i didnt mean that at all

im the one sitting here knowing that they are suppose to be cut off, and the t-shirt im wearing still has them on :wacko:

the main reason i know, is not because i read the tags (cause i dont) its cause i used to work in a clothes shop :b

your not daft at all. :huggles:
