I had no real plans for today...got woken up and thrown out of bed tho cause Dad lost our little dog!
He didn't mean to...she got outside when John was leaving for work and then thunder hit, she freaked out and ran! Apparently she found a little gap in the back fence cause I found her 3 hours later in a backyard a street over from us. John came home cause I called him in a frenzy, crying. I didn't want to blame dad but was having a hard time with it and couldn't even talk to him while we were looking.
We have (had now cause John filled it and the gap in) a HUGe groundhog hole in where the pond was supposed to go. We called roto rooter out cause they have one of those cable cameras and they checked the hole for the dog. Thank GOD she wasn't in there. My neighbor and I started expanding our search area and I found her in a yard next to a business that's on the highway near here.
I am forever grateful that she was scared (enough to bite me when I tried to pick her up) but ok. It's cool how the neighbors and cops and even the roto rooter guy joined us in the search for my little Penny.
Can you believe after all that, my FIL let her out just now and she beelined for the same hole in the fence! There's no way I woulda let John leave without fixing it but Wow! ami glad he fixed it! (stupid dog

)
