Our house in Frisco had the back alley garage access, and kids from the hood would use the alley to ride their bikes and walk to school. Hailey would bark if she knew people were walking by, and anyone could have thrown something over the fence, and I did find odd things had been thrown now and then. For that reason, I never left her outside alone. Never. Our back gate was kept locked, and the only time I unlocked it was the day the mowers came. You never know what people might do. Plus, we had an owl that kept eyeing her up and she was so little that I wanted to be sure she did not encounter a snake or a bee. |
