Every night, before bedtime, I brush Thatch and Annabelle. Thatch loves his brushing and goes crazy: he rolls about, stretches, and tries to eat the bristles, which are either metal or a really stiff plastic. Well, last nioght all was going well while I brushed the top of his head when he swerved, and I thought I raked the bristles over his right eye. I was terrified: what if I blinded him or scratched it badly? I tried to check it out,. but he hates being held and fought me like mad, but it looked to me as if something happened because he kept squinting. That bothered me all night, but he seems yo be okay today, so maybe I only thought I'd poked his eye?
