About 12 years ago I broke my ankle while running. I leaned my crutches along the wall leading out of the kitchen. Cooper, our black lab, was walking out of kitchen and the crutches fell and hit him.
It freaked him out. He remained afraid of the crutch. We even had a song for the crutch.

Sung to the Tune of The Grinch Christmas theme song.
“You’re a mean one Mr. Crutch”
Soon he became afraid of the song without the crutch.

My wife hurt her knee yesterday. I found the old set of crutches. Cooper wasn’t happy about it. I didn’t have the heart to sing the song.







I would love to hear you opinion as well
