Today, I was walking my husky when she saw a cat and bolted toward it. I couldn't let go of the leash because my hand was tangled up. Forced to run along, I ran into a parked van at full sprint. I lost my dog, broke two ribs and have to pay for the dent in the van. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was walking my dog when another dog barked at him. My dog ran, pulling me with him. I fell to the ground in pain, with my hand still holding the leash. FML
Today, while on a run off campus with my german shepherd, I tried to impress a couple of hot fraternity guys playing football outside of their house. I broke out into a full sprint. I then got tangled in my dog's leash and fell straight in to a parked jeep knocking myself unconscious. FML
Today, I ran into a parked car and fell into the gutter. All because a dog suddenly barked at me. From the other side of a wooden fence. FML
Today, I was walking my dog when I tripped on the leash, dropping his treat bag. He snatched one, looked at me, and ran full speed in the opposite direction. I had to chase him for three blocks, yelling his name. He thought it was a new game. FML
Today, I went for a run, and my own dog attacked me. FML
Today, I came home on crutches. My dog was immediately afraid of them, and came running towards me, growling and barking. She ran right into me, knocking me over. FML
Today, I was driving home with my girlfriend. As we turned onto our block, she shrieked that our dog was running down the street and into traffic. I jumped out of the moving car and chased him for about a mile, only to give up, go home, and find out it wasn't our dog. FML
Today, my dog chewed through his leash, so I had to take him inside to prevent him from running off. I went to bed. I woke up to torn-up blinds, half-ate sandals, and a very, very anxious cat due to my dog running after her and trying to sniff her butt. FML
Today, the family dog escaped and I ran after her. She started attacking a random dog, so I started clapping and yelling, trying to get her attention. After I got her away, my hands started swelling. I clapped my hands so hard that they're swollen and bruised. FML
Today, I was walking down a path in the woods behind my house when I saw a squirrel. It ran away, but little did I know it wasn't running from me, it was running from the dog that had forced Animal Control to sweep the area. I ended up with stitches in my leg. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

My black lab weighs 95 pounds and I can hold him from chasing after anything. Either get some muscles, train your dog, or just use a choke collar or harness when you walk him so he doesn't pull as hard. I hope you find him and he's okay. =)

Exactly, get a choke-chain and pull hard. It'll stop any dogs in their tracks. I remember restraining my dogs with a couple quick-hard jerks when I was little.

Try training your dog next time. Seriously. People who can't control their dogs shouldn't take them out in public. Or at least stick to little ones that can't do any damage. I'm just glad it was you who your dog hurt and not some random kid.

how would hyou lose your dog if it was tangled around your hand? And how would you run into a van unless you seriously can't turn or he ran into the van too?

k for the people railing this guy for letting go of the leash...a husky was built for pulling shit. lets sayyy a person, sled and supplies? if a husky wants to go somewhere he will. there is not stopping it. sorry dude. that sucks. i hope you feel better soon and find your dog.

Learn to control your dog either physically or if you're just not that big, verbally. If you can't control your dog, you should NOT own it. This comes from someone who has been bitten 7 times, because owners can't control their dogs.

Dang you probably wont see that dog again...it's not the type of breed that usually comes back when it is free to run. It sucks for you getting injured though and having to pay for the car......

Okay, people need to get educated. This is just getting ridiculous. I'm not one to argue over the internet (especially in the comments section), but people have no clue what they're saying! As I said before, if the OP is a girl, I feel bad for her, although she shouldn't be walking an untrained husky. Although if the OP is a dude, he needs to get stronger. People, stop acting like huskies are the strongest breed or something. Newfoundlands are definitely bigger and stronger. My cousins have one, they can handle it fairly well and aren't muscular by any means, really. For all you people saying "huskies were bred to pull stuff." Okay, have you ever seen a husky pull an Eskimo and his stuff BY ITSELF? No, they always have help from many other huskies in the pack. Also, what about the fact that the OP's dog DOESN'T pull stuff? Just because a dog was bred for something doesn't mean they'll be like the ones who were trained for specific tasks. If a human does not exercise, he/she does not get strong. If a husky does not pull Eskimos, it does not get strong enough to drag a man and break his ribs. I'm not saying the FML is fake, I'm just saying that if the OP is a girl, she needs a different dog. If it's a guy, he needs to hit up the gym. Also, watch The Dog Whisperer on National Geographic, as I said before. Sorry about your injury, OP. I don't like being harsh.

This is one of the worst stories I've read on the site. I mean as in horrible for you. I know a lot of people say a lot of FMLs aren't really FML worthy, but no one could ever say this one isn't.
