Jen Saved us from a ..... Racoon!
Last night while we were all cozy in bed, ready to go to sleep, when Jen jumps up and off the bed to the sliding patio door like a possessed Yorkie barking her head off. Jazzie and Jolie started barking too. But Jen was being relentless and it was her "Big Dog" bark all mean and ferocious. Jolie and Jazzie had the "We don't know what were barking at" voices.
So I grabbed the flashlight and went to see what she was barking at and of course mommy with her limited human hearing and eyesight couldn't see a thing. But Jen wouldn't stop, kept barking and trying to open the slider. It was raining and cold so I climbed back in bed to watch Jen. All of a sudden she jumped and ran back from the glass barking like nuts!Then I saw a shadow crossing the patio so I hopped back out of bed and gads! There's a HUGE Racoon on the patio!
How Jen heard it is a miracle to me with the heavy rainfall and all. This is only the 2nd time I have ever seen a racoon in my condo complex in 5 years.
Needless to say - We were all up until about 2 AM while Jen was "On Alert" and protecting her family.
Meanwhile Jazzie and Jolie were clueless to what all the fuss was about. |
