[matese]

Wow horrifying dreams.... Several years ago I had come home from a week end visit with my dad, at that time I had my 11 y/o Schnae and 5 y/o Matese. I put the dogs in the house first, then went to the car to get the over nighter. When I came back in I didn't see Matese, I called and called her, nothing. Matese was a fast lil girl, would dart out the door as you were closing it and never see her, when she didn't come after 4 calls I went into panic mode, I went outside calling and calling her name, nothing, I live in a heavily wooded area, I was running down the road crying and calling her, saw ppl, asked did they see a large yorkie, I saw some young kids, I had to force myself to stop crying, didn't want to scare them by seeing a frantic crying adult, asked did they see the dog, after an hour searching and calling her I came back to the house hysterical blaming myself for not seeing her scoot out the door, I am walking up my driveway and looking out of the living room window was THE DOG, Matese, I ran in scooped her up and hugged and kissed her all over. I found out later that night she had found a hiding place under my sofa, I have a sofa with recliners on each end. Behind the sofa between the two recliners is an empty space, who knew lol, she did lol, she was also a thief, steal things out of my purse, when I found her secret hiding spot I also found the stash, chap sticks, cigarette lighters, pencils. But what a scare she gave me. The next day I had a gate installed on my front deck. That was a real nightmare.
