| They gave me such a scare!!!!! My two naughty boys went missing. Just at dark, when I was taking a boiled egg and cottage cheese to my pregnant momma, I noticed there were three dogs missing. Baylee, Beamer and Levi. They had escaped via the drift over the fence. I immediately opened the garage door, turned on the light and started calling for them. No sign of them. I went inside to get my coat and a flashlight, and when I went back out Baylee was in the garage. But no sign of the boys. I started walking down the driveway, calling for them, listening, calling some more, listening, shining the flashlight all around, hoping to catch their eye. Nothing. The snow is deep so it did not pay for me to go tromping through the snow when I had no idea which direction to go. Finally I hear a neighbor dog start barking, and then two very frightened screechy voices barking back. I took off across the field through the snow. By the time I got there the neighbor had them in her arms, they were on her deck. They were so frightened they were not even squirming to get down. I was sooooooooooooo happy to see them. Then I had to dfgo back throlugh the snow, this time uphill, carrying two dogs and a flashlight. They were only gone for a half hour, but man it was a long half hour for me. |

| What a scary experience, naughty Yorkies.... I would never let mine out without me being there, but I know a lot of people do and its usually OK. They are tricky guys walking up a snow drift to get over your fence! Our DC area snow is still powdery enought that they sunk into it, but this weekend we should get a nice re-frozen layer on top to make it a crunchy Yorkie supporting kind of snow - the kind they like. |

| OMG My heart was pounding reading your story! I'm so sorry they got out. I'm so happy that you found them safe and sound!!!! Bijou did the same thing to me on Halloween night and though paniced, I stopped and listened for her bell...it's amazing how quickly your natural instincts kick in! I'm sooooo glad that you stopped and listened! ((((((((((Hugs)))))))))))

| I promptly shoveled the drift off the fence as soon as everyone was home safe and sound, but did not want to do it until they were back in, just in case I had to give up my search and they would try to get back in the same way. Tomorrow I will dig a mote along the fence. |

| Those poor babies, and poor you! I know that scary feeling, luckily, mine has only lasted seconds not minutes. They are there and then... gone. I go into PANIC mode, thinking the worst. I am so glad you got them back. Hopefully, this was as much adventure as they will need for a while. |
