First, and foremost, let me say that little Miss Madeline is the fastest Yorkie I have EVER seen!!! Everyone that spotted her said the same thing. She was there... then she was gone!!!

Hubby left the kids on the deck while he went down the driveway to grab the Saturday morning paper. In the 2 minutes that it took, that little hussy Maddie somehow broke through the barricade (7 years here and none of my 5 have ever done it!) and took off down the street!

I heard her bark, and looked out the window. Like V said... all I could see was this hairy little heiney haulin' butt over the hill!!!

We chased her down from 9:30 until about 1... we had cars and were still always just one step behind her. We kept getting reports from all over the place and I started to think that there was another lost Yorkie in the neighborhood.

At 1 we stopped and made up flyers with her picture on it. A couple of hours and about 400 flyers later we started getting calls. By the time we could get to one location, I'd get a call from someone else a couple of streets away!!!

After a couple of hours of that cat and mouse game we finally got her less than a block away from my house!! Throughout the day she had been spotted about a mile away from my house in about 4 different directions!

Yep... she's a fast one, that Maddie is! I hear it took 24 hours to find her last August when she pulled this stunt. It took us about 12 this year... I told Megan and Teri that next year they're in for a good 6 hour dog hunt!!

She's on lockdown, now! The dog door is shut and she's only allowed supervised tethered visits to the dog run and the deck is OFF LIMITS!!!

Here she is the night before the Great Escape watching TV in the sliding glass door...

Oh my goodness your version is like DEJAVU'.. so much like last year at my house! Unreal. She is a HUSSY! LOL

We had the same thing.. sightings,,oh we saw her but couldn't catch her, she was here. oh she's over there. She is a traveler, that's for sure. And lightning fast.

OH Sherry Lynn I know exactly how you felt.
