Lucky for me, he didn’t succed, but he did do this
This is what it looked like on the outside.
I very strongly suggest that no one use the ‘run into them if they get in the way so they learn’ method of training a dog to run with you. He was probably just mad he had to get up at 5:30 to get exercise, so he cut it short by tripping me in an epic fashion (good thing no one saw, it was a pretty funny fall).
This is the little bugger who did it. You can see the evil in his eyes!
Cute pup…too bad he’ll likely kill you in the morning…
He’s an outside dog THANK GOODNESS.
Don’t kid yourself. That dog has a key.
Owie!! My dog gave me a black eye my first week at my current job. We were playing while he was on my lap and he flipped his head back and that hard knobby bit on a dog’s head hit me right below the eye. It was, of course, the day before I had my ID photo taken.
I never thought of the spare key! He knows where I hide the spare key in the back yard!
That’s it, I’m hiring a bodyguard.
He’s GORGEOUS!
Hope you heal soon!
Oooh, your poor hand. Tell your dog no more breaking the hand that feeds it!
We’ve firmly established who is the “pack leader” in your house, eh?
(Hint: it’s not you! 
)
Hehehe, no, I’m the leader! He’s outside, I’m inside!
My husband threw his back out trying not to step on our mini-dachshund the first week we had her. SHe had no concept of how to stay out from under foot, and would try to walk between your legs with you.
I have the feeling he was just warning you.
Since I don’t read x-rays, maybe you can tell us what happened. Sprain? Fracture?
He has you right where he wants you…
It looks like a fracture to me, but IANAD.
Ooooo, multicolored evil!
5:30AM and he did that? I’m worried for you about what he could do to you after he’s had his coffee…
That, my friend, is a beautiful animal. I used to have a dog that looked amlost identical to him. He was my brother. God I loved that dog.
AAAAAnnnyway, yeah, you’d better watch your back. I think that was a warning shot. Mine didn’t take too kindly to being woken up early either. Hope your hand heals up quickly too, looks painful as hell.

P.S. hiding the spare key and getting a bodyguard might not be a bad idea
It’s a fracture of my metacarpal (I think that’s what it’s called).
I took him for a walk last night and he did not want to behave. He’s planning something. Maybe he’s asserting his dominance on me because he gets pwned by my other very alpha dog?
btw, he’s a rescue dog. We foster rescues and took him and his sister in. Poor things were starved.
So, in other words, he has the much bigger territory.
Plus, he’s cute!
