Dog on the Run

Hello all: We had a call from my sister E.Beth yesterday regarding Teka. Seems she is sleeping in a bit later than she did for muzzer. Good news, huh?

Well, it seems there is another part of this tale. Friday night Teka somehow got out the front door of our house and no one knew she left, 'cause E.Beth was sleeping and she slipped right past Grandpa without letting him see her.

And I guess she just started running as quickly as she could, hoping to find Doofus Stains at home. (she has a totally unrequited crush on him...really, honest Lillie, Doofus does not encourage her at all!)

She went the wrong way though, 'cause she ran East and South from our house. She managed to get across Rural Road without getting hit (thank dog!) and ended up at a house behind the church there. Someone called E.Beth shortly after 11:00 pm to tell her that Teka had been found. E.Beth was sleeping and didn't know she was lost!

Teka got picked up right away and was seriously scolded for being a bad dog. We don't think it will really make any impression on her, and we are worried about her! She has E.Beth's phone number on her little bone tag, but what if she slipped her collar?

Anyway, please Doofus if she does this again, keep her there and call E.Beth! We will talk to Lillie for you, promise!

OMG - thank goodness this story has a happy ending! No more sleeping for E.Beth till you get home Gussie - then she can sleep! On second thought - maybe Teka can be tied to E.Beth's leg while she sleeps!

Love ya lots,
Maggie

Maybe Teka needs a collar like cousin Casper's that will ZAP her if she leaves the yard?

This is for Teka:

Teka, we don't say this very often because we hate to hear it ourselves, but.....

BAD DOG!!!!!!!

Running out the door, we have been told many many times, IS NOT AN OPTION!!!

Anyway, if you want the object of your crush to appreciate you, you should try playing a little hard to get... or so we guys have been told.

Good sniffs anyway, and happy woofs that you weren't hurt!!

I think Teka must be jealous that you get to meet Ms Snickers and she did not have the chance to meet Doofus.

Luv,

Yep, the win does count -- finally, smiles in our house as we watched down to the last out on TV. I think we understand what your Dad said: more wins, even by one run! But I guess the Cards were so mad at the Phillies' previous two days' 23 runs, they just had to rack up the score.

Mom and Dad -- and my brother and new sister-in-law who are back from their honeymoon cruise -- are going to the game tonight: Cards vs. Florida Marlins. Keep your paws crossed.

Oh Gus - when I first was adopted I slipped out and my poor humans were a total wreck. We are glad to hear Teka is okay.

My mom was also envious of all those veggies - she said we well go to the farmers market when we visit gramma next week.

Thanks for the kind words about my foster (paws crossed for permanent) brother. We are counting down the days - just three more till he arrives.

Love to all Dory
