I've mentioned before that we have a gopher problem in our back yard (do you see where this is going?!)
My husband was in the back yard with the kids playing t-ball and Sandy was chasing the ball (she's so cute!)
This according to my husband:
All of a sudden, she ran the other way and started barking a mean bark. She got hold of a gopher, shook it and - yup- it's dead now.
I can't believe I forgot to tell you guys about this earlier - What's so funny about this is that Sandy is a slooooooww dog. She can play for maybe 10 minutes before she needs a rest. But she hauled it right after the gopher. Just goes to show how strong their instincts are sometimes!
She brought the gopher to my husband, and according to him she was properly rewarded
She has had a bath and after a call to my vet (they really must hate me, I call them all the time!) -- I was assured that she should be fine -- I was worried that she could get something from it.
Tia and I missed the action, we were having a nap and Sandy left us in the middle of it!
So, that's my incredible doggie story of the day (year probably! lol)
