As some of you know we've had a flood here and that's made life rather difficult.
Then Sunday not only did I throw up all over myself on the way home from Honeyhills due to the cough that I've got but when we got home we found that Woody had scaled a 5'+ fence and escaped. We leave a couple of our dogs at home as they have a dog flap so can let themselves out and they normally have settees and comfy chairs to sleep on. But due to the floods not anymore. They merely have comfy dog beds.
Anyway Woody looked like a goner, to quote Alan. as he was dead lame on his rear left hind as well as his permanently dislocated right front leg (racing injury). One of my neighbours had had a knock on their door and there he was with an irate driver who told them that he'd nearly run over their dog. My neighbours took Woody in and kept him with them until we got home. Woody is fine just a bit stiff btw and I think that he hadn't been playing with cars just hurt himself when he got over the fence.
Now tonight I let out Stig (Spellbinder) into my front garden with my pup to have a last night pee and there was summat else out there and .............. well he's gone. I don't know where but he was in hot pursuit and ................. Basically christ only knows where he's gone and if he's alright. He took down a piece of wire fencing and dragged it several yards and there is no sign of him. Alan's out looking for him but with all the miles of woodland here..................
Logan (Enchanter) and Dusty ran back to me so are okay. I'm guessing that it must have been a fox 'cause it was small (I never saw it at all) not a cat or it would have gone closer to home ie next door. Please keep your fingers crossed that we find Stiggy or that he comes back in his own time.
Alan's just come back and has gone of to get some sleep I'm sitting up and waiting and hoping that he comes home soon.
