No, not a blackjack story, a Blackjack story. Blackjack was the 4th puppy I raised for Leader Dogs for The Blind. He's a black lab, out in the field now, leading a blind person. When Blackjack was about about 6 months old, his head stood about 2 1/2 feet off the ground. When Blackjack was 6 months old; my grandson Ryan was about 2 years old, and his face was about 2 1/2 feet off the ground.
One Sunday evening when the whole family -12 adults - were over for supper, Ryan sneezed. I do believe both sinuses totally emptied -- both nostrils had snot hanging down 3 inches. (Sorry, it's gross I know :-) In unison, every adult in the room said "quick, get a tissue!" As noted, Blackjack's head stood exactly the same height as Ryan's face. Blackjack heard the sneeze, wandered over, and with one great big lick, took care of the situation! ......in unison everyone said, "eehwww...never mind!"
Did we all laugh big belly laughs......and NO puppy kisses for a while.
