One really lucky dog!

A few weeks ago my dog who is about a year old walked into one of our beaver traps and lived! We were outside cooking burgers and my sisters asks where is the dog. We go looking for her and we hear my sister scream. We run down the driveway and find our dog with its head caught in a beaver trap with her eyes rolled back in her head. I ran back to the house to get the tools for the traps while my dad got it pulled out a little and shoved his foot in the trap so she could breathe. We pulled her out and she caught her breath we went to the house and a few hours later she was fine. The next day she had a little swelling but besides that she was completely normal. I was amazed the trap got her perfectly around the neck.

Beaver traps? You must be from Canada.

Your mom has a beaver trap. Real deep in the bush too.

What kind of dog? A larger animal than a beaver could easily survive that.

shes a yellow labridore. They can get big but right now she is pretty young and small she is smaller than a beaver.

almost a year old  a few months away maybe more than that i cant remember what month it was when we got her.

Way to not reinforce stereotypes, man.

I live out in the country and our "next door neighbor" is a few kilometers away.

He makes a good point.
