Dog-Gone it!
I was worried I wouldn't have anything to write about today, but then my sister's dog decided to make a break for freedom when I opened the door to get the mail. His name is Rufus,but his nickname is the AntiChrist!. He is neutered and 10 years old so he should know better, but any chance he gets , he is gone like the wind! It is especially annoying when you have your nightgown on when he runs away! Thank God I was fully dressed today! He got a good head start while I put on shoes though! Having asthma, I can't run as fast as some people, so was pleasantly surprised when a new neighbour across the street came out and asked Need any Help? As if I would say No! I said "Sure" and she ran like a marathon runner. He tried running to the other side of the street but we cut him off at the pass. Thank God our street is very quiet ! She said her Lab Retriever got hit by a truck when he ran away, and so anytime she she sees an escaped dog, she helps to catch it. He is only 20 pounds so not too heavy to carry home. I would be in trouble if he was a 100 pound dog! My dog Leo is the same breed, a purebred Pekingese , and he never runs away! Once his collar came off his head when we were walking and he could have run away , but he just stood there till I rectified the problem. What are some of your furry friend stories?
The top one is both dogs exhausted after playing with boxes all Xmas morning! The bigger one with black face is Rufus and the one below is Leo ! as you can see, he is very fond of Kraft Dinner! He is 4, and Rufus is 10.
