My husband opened the door that leads to the garage and out runs Millie, she ran out the garage and into the front yard and was headed for the street. My husband was chasing after her. I told him to stop. I told him to let her chase him, but he did not understand. So I started running and make a general fool of myself, making it seem like a game and running away from Millie. Sure enough, Millie started chasing after me! I ran to the fence gate and opened it up all the while telling Millie "don't get your Mommy" and I ran into the fenced in area and Millie chased after me and in she goes too. I hurriedly closed the gate on her and proceeded to tell my husband: "There! That's how its done!"
I learned a great lesson, I hope my husband did too. |
Oh I'm so happy for you! It's so scary when they do that. I'm glad it worked for you! (Isn't great to be able to show up the husband too!)
