Libby & Faith are in the doghouse! This evening I was out in the back yard planting flowers...hubby was working on something out there and I had the dogs out. At one point, I looked around the yard to do a head count on the dogs. I only saw Maddie. I called Libby and Faith and they were nowhere back there. Then hubby saw Libby sitting outside the gate waiting for us to let her in! How'd she get out there...where was Faith? So, we put Libby in the back and went out front to look for Faith. I'm yelling, "Faith...where's my little tiny baby puppy?" I've said that since the day I got her if she was out of site and she always comes running when she hears that. I was checking the front and side yard, the neighbors to the North, and hubby headed down the hill. Praise the Lord...he found her two houses down in between a couple of houses. We live on a busy street and thank goodness she didn't cross the street! So, Libby and Faith are grounded...if I'm working outside and not able to watch their every move, Libby will be leashed. We watched Libby to see if she'd try escaping again and sure enough...she climbs through the slats of the fence...to the other side is a steep rock embankment because we are much higher than the neighbors. I've already put wire fencing in between the slats of two sections and have to go buy more tomorrow to finish the other sections. Here I thought we had the fence Libby proofed, but if there's any way out, she'll find it! Libby always finds her way to the gate and sits there waiting for us. She's such a little stinker...and then she takes her little sister with her and doesn't bring her home with her! I'm so very thankful we found them both. I was SO scared! Whew! |
