Close call earlier.....
Have an old dog, 13 years old, half blind, getting senile. Had her since she was weaned from her mother as a pup. She is as much a part of our family as a child really.
I let her out to do her business and then some fence company guys showed up to flag where we are about to put in a new fence for the three dogs.
Well the fence guys laid out their plan with flags and then left. I went inside the house and got busy on some other projects.
Hubs gets off early from work and comes in and notices only two dogs meet him at the door. Asks where the old dog is. I said I don't know, and realized shes not in her dog bed and not in the house. I freak out. I realize I have left her outside and shes gone. I was tripping cause shes old and we haven't lived in our new place very long so she has no idea where she is. She grew up in the same house and neighborhood her whole life until we moved here.
I was beside myself so worried and feeling horrible my old girl is lost
Hubs gets in car, drives down the road. Spots her 6 houses down from us asleep on somebodys carport.
Never in my life so glad to see that little hairy beast, we just love her so!
I am celebrating I have her back and I will never let her out of my sight again when shes outside!!
So grateful to still have her. Its ended up a great day!
Hope you all have a great weekend!
