Sam gets A Firework In His Mouth !!

You had me soooo confused!!! You said "I went to my daughters for setting off fireworks for her and my 2 grandsons." so I figured Sam was one of your grandsons!!! it didn't make it easier that you described Sam as yelling at the fireworks. Then I got really confused when he picked it up with his mouth... Sounds like you had a lot of fun! Isnt it a few days early for fireworks? just kidding! I was setting some off a few days ago (not so legally... I live in New York. Thanx Pennsylvania!) but nothing like that happened!

That must have been so much fun and hilarious too Grandpa Bob. No one could steal the fireworks show just like Sam can! LOL! Though I am not so fond of any hairy animals, but I find dogs really cute and intelligent. My daughter's favorite story is always about the dogs. Even with all those mosquito , you did have a great family bonding time spiced up by Sam's exhibition. Happy posting!

That had to have been a sight to see. Too bad you forgot your camera. But you were probably to busy laughing to have snapped a picture anyway. But I can visualize what you are saying without any pictures.

Dogs get real weird ideas in their heads. He must have thought the fire work was some sort of enemy. Our kids have two remote contro, cars. When the take one or both out on the back verandah, & start operating them, the dogs go balistic. They run round & round the car, barking incessntly & bcoming quite frantic. Unlike Sam, they wont pick it up though, or touch the remopte car in any way.

Darn you Grandpa Bob...you scared me! I thought you were talking about one of your grandsons, not your daughter's dog! LMAO!!! Though I should have known better that it was a dog and not a child. ;) I'm glad everyone had a good time...well almost everyone. Poor Sam! LOL

That sounds like something I would see on America's Funniest Home Video. Too bad you didn't have a video camera. That would be funny to watch I bet. Dogs and kids do the darndest things !! Glad you had a good time.

Grandpa Bob that is terrible lol I think I would have ran to lol I guessed it must have been a Dog lol but goodness your poor Wife lol I don't know if I would have ran for it or if I would have been so shocked stuck to the Chair lol Knowing my Luck I would have probably been stuck to the Chair I am glad though that you all had a good time and I hope you left me some Pizza lol

Good thing it wasn't one to go BANG!!! Glad Sam is ok too! Fireworks can be very dangerous. My dogs hate them and hide in the doghouse. The two inside just go insane barking. Only a few more days of noise...woohoo!

Oh no—I’ve never heard of a dog chasing a firework! Too funny! I’m glad that no one was hurt in this incident- I’d say next time lock the dog in the house – lol.. We go tomorrow for fireworks- except it’s supposed to rain! EEK! I hope it holds off. Darn mosquitoes! I swear we feed them at my house- they get so big! I always get bit when I’m at out night- even with lots of bug spray on! Itch away- I’m sure I’ll be itching all day Wednesday!

I love fireworks and I love playing with them ..but unfortunately in New York they are illegal. I hope that Sam suffered no ill effects from the fireworks and that would have made a great picture, too bad you did not have your camera.

That could have been a bad situation. Im glad everything turned out alright. I love fireworks. We are going to do them with our family Tuesday night. It always makes for a good time.

Thank you, Grandpa Bob, for the laugh when I needed a lift to my spirits at a sad time in my life. Can always count on you to do just that. Maybe Sam thought the fireworks were dangerous in which they can be if your not careful with them. I knew Sam had to be a dog but thanks for letting us know what kind of dog and who he belongs to. Glad to hear you guys had a wonderful time last nite, including the skeeters. lol

Grandpa Bob, I really wished you had a photo to share. This was a really good story you shared with us. I have to admit you had me at first. I thought you was talking about a young grandchild. I have seen a young child pick up one of those smoke bombs before. His little hand was headed to his mouth. Before he got it in his mouth his dad stopped him though. We have a German Shepherd mix that loves to chase after fireworks while our other three dogs are afraid of fireworks. Thanks for the laugh Grandpa Bob

oh o.O well i see that ur dog hates bangs and booms and colours... well animals happen to do this kind of thing, i mean they hate something and want to just get rid of it, just like a fly annoying a cat and the cat wants to kill it, it would have been very bad if the firework exploded ... well good that it didnt , ok cya happy postings.

Wll, the whole time I was reading it I was thiking of this poor kid with a fire work in his mouth runnin to his grandma. Our 5th got a little "nerve wreckin" for a momment too. They was up the hill abit lighting the fireworks (they bein all of the men) Us ( bein women & the kids) was a bit away from them because they had several morter rounds (big ones). My brother in law brought one down there with us to light. Someone said somethin about it & he said "Dont worry, it dont leave the ground" So he lit it. But boy was he ever wrong. The darn thing took off flying towards all of us. My mom was sitting on one side of me. In between us was my friends son, (he's handicap 3 yr old that cant get out of his wheel chair) The thing came right at her. It missed her head by less then an inch. Boy we sure was running then. I grabbed the kids. Everyone else just ran. Luckly I did think to cover the 3 yr old & 6 mnth old because as I was bent over them trying to cover them, a piece of the fire fell off & hit me in the back. Even left a blister. It was funny afterwards but at the time it kind of scared us. Then after all the fireworks was done (3 hrs later:) The guys, being idiots decided to light the box that the fire works came in on fire in the middle of the yard. I said "It would be funny if there was one left & it went off on them" About 2 minutes later, bam! It did. There was some stuff left in the box that had dumped out. Little balls & things shot everywere. Never seen grown men run so fast. Every single one of them still got hit at least a few times. It was funny though. well to us women it was the men who were the idiots & got hit didn't find it as amusing.

Yikes! Well thankfully everyone survived the fireworks! LOL Sounds like quite an event!

Hopefully Sam didn't get burnt or hurt by his trying to kill the fireworks. I love fireworks and have been blessed to have them often (since it is legal in our area of town) on any holiday that sells them.

Oh that's funny! I wish I could have seen it. Sounds like your daughter has a very entertaining dog.

Oh my goodness. I can just see the people trying to run away from that lit firework. And the dog thinking that he is doing something good. My dog doesn't like them either but we just leave her inside when we shoot fireworks off. I hope you quit itching soon, I hate mosquito bites.

Well I hope that Sam got a treat for trying to protect his family from the "bad sparky thing". LOL And I'm so glad he didn't get hurt, and neither did anyone else. That would have made a hilarious photo for sure.
