Today, my dog was knocked unconscious. I had to race him to the vet and pay a small fortune for x-rays and shots. All because he ran into the kitchen at full speed and smashed headfirst into the refrigerator after hearing me open a bag of turkey. FML

roadie42 tells us more.

Hey, OP here! The vet was worried that he might have a concussion, so they gave him shots to prevent/reduce any swelling. I think he also received a sedative for the x-ray. Anyway, he's doing just fine now...back to his normal happy self. And he got some turkey in the end for his trouble :)

Why would a dog need shots for this?

Congrats... my dog wont even come and see me if I have bacon in hand.

YDI obv he associates the sound of the bag with food. Shouldn't even be giving your dog human food in the first place you can make them sick.

Not if you're careful about what you give them. Turkey is not going to hurt a dog. In fact, it's actually closer to their natural diet than regular dog food.

If you give a dog to much it can be harmful but it depends mostly on the breed of dog. I have a bichon friese which can't be eating normal food. I also have a german shepard which can eat anything

That's usually true for scraps, but a piece of fresh clean food won't hurt the dog. Plus Iv'e seen dogs eat disgusting thing long a dead squirrel. Turkey won't hurt it.

You've clearly never owned a Labrador, those things have stomaches made of steel!

Awh dogs... you love them so much, but they do some of the dumbest things

Next time get it on camera. . Million hits on YouTube for sure

I see where you're coming from, but you don't want his dog to get hurt dude, hopefully there is no next time. What's better, a YouTube video that's popular for a week, or your dog's health? If you answered anything but "your dog's health" you're a douchecanoe, don't be a douchecanoe.

If the dog is stupid enough to do it again and again than it deserves it plain and simple.

My dog does this constantly for fun. I swear to god my dog is ******* brain damaged now. And I wish I could tell you that your dog will grow out of that but I'm not sure

I recently had to put my dog down, but this made me smile in his memory. If it's any consolation, your post made my day. Sorry about the expenses, but at least you made somebody who was hurting truly happy.

Next time you should probably open the bag of turkey near the couch or around something soft.
