I DID FIND HER, BUT here is what happened:
I found a pee puddle in the kids play room (a room she loves to pee in at least twice a week) and I got so mad at her. I found her wandering around the kitchen and I picked her up, took her into the other room and showed her the pee, then I picked her up and put her face to face with me and said very harshly, No, Zoie, don't pee in the play room, pee outside. Then I took her out to back door and set her down on the patio steps and said Do that crap out here......I'm sorry, but i'm frustrated, I had just spent 20 or 30 minutes cleaning her other "messes" with a shampooer. Still have to work on them some more but that is besides the point.
So, 10 or 15 minutes later I go to find her and look outside and can't find her. I look inside, call for her, ask the kids if they have her and panic. I start yelling at my 2 year old to get his friggin shoes on...he has to "DO IT MYSELF" and that takes at least 1 minute, all the time I'm thinking if we don't hurry up she's going to get taken or run over. So, we finally get out and walk up and down one of3 streets we need to go down and come back to get the car cause the kids walk too slow, then my 5 year old says, "there's Zoie" and sure enough she comes running from the intersection near our house (in our subdivision, not a major one). So, she was happy to see us, we were so happy to see her and she was so cute. She came home and got a big drink of water, BURPED and then went to bed and I haven't heard from her in over an hour!!! We have a fence and she's never gotten out before. Now I'm scared to let her out. I have two little kids and it's not practical to go with her every time I even think she needs to pee!! I guess I'll be using a leash until I figure out where she got out.
