More mad dads!
Is it just me or does everyone just love a mad dad?
All this week at MIX FM we’re talking about Mad Dad’s…I know tonnes!
My friend Brendan’s dad Gerald is a classic…a very dry farmer…man of few words…
Brendan reckons that once when he was a kid, their dog 'Shep' was sniffing around in the shed, when she got into the ratsak…
The kids weren’t sure how much Shep had eaten, but it wasn’t pretty.
Poor old Shep was coughing and spluttering, foaming at the mouth and trying as hard as she could to get away from the kids (it's horrible if you've ever seen a poisoned dog … but she obviously thought she was going to die). Anyway, the four kids started screaming to their Dad who came running from behind the house.
Brendan claims his dad took one look at Shep, picked her up by the back legs and started giving her the biggest dizzy wizzy the kids had ever seen.
Around and around they went, with Gerald screaming ‘get outta the way kids!’ as the turning circle got more and more erratic…
Nothing was going to stop Gerald, around and around they went!
Brendan reckons he was stunned silent, the little kids started crying, "Stop Daddy! Stop! You're hurting Shep!" Brendan’s Mum Cecily started with a cautious “Gerry....Gerald!” But round and round went Gerald and Shep, and just as Cecily got really serious”Gerald….that’s quite enough!” Down they went…dog and dad sprawled in the dirt!
Miraculously, Shep stood up and chundered! Vomitted absolutely everything in her stomach…including the ratsak!
And to this day that mad dad is a family hero, for the day he gave a dizzy wizzy to the dog…
