I'm so happy you found her. Last year my little Heidi old who was almost 17 yrs old slipped outside when I had the other two right outside the front door. Heidi was blind, deaf and old and I never thought about her being able to get down the steps. I thought she was in her bed sleeping and when I got ready to go to bed and hour later and went to get her she was not there-she was not anywhere. I was running around crying and calling for her and my husband heard me and got up (it was 3am) to help me look for her. We live on 5 1/2 acres, it was dark, cold and we have coyotes. I was just devasted. My poor little baby made it all the way to the far back side of my property and fell in a 2 ft fence hole that the neighbors had dug. We would have never found her if she had not been barking. I was never so relieved to have her back in my arms and I kept her within eyesight from then until we lost her 3 weeks ago. She was 18 yrs old. I know you are sooo relieved.
