For Every Rose there is a Thorn. Lately lots of thorns & very few roses.
Think that repairing the old Dodge is somehow jinxing me.
Little rose bud. 3 /4 days & baby doves & mother are gone. Know that Inca Dove babies can fly in 3 days. Didn't know that about full size doves.
Built a harness out of rope to hold Little Boy while going to town. Had him tied with rope, he chewed that in to in about 3 minuets. OK use some dog chain.
Get back from town & he got out of harness & is gone. Spent the next day driving all over the neighborhood & no Little Boy. Dog catcher was in the area, ask him if he has my dog. Says nope, no dogs at all.
Next AM Mother Bobby scratches on the door. Never done that before, but I think she wants in the house. Nope it took her a little while to show & tell me that we have to check the yard for Little Boy. Every time I quit following her, she comes back to get me. She talking her head off, another thing she had never done. All her life she has had a dog companion, Wants Little Boy back.
Get a call from the dog jail. Little Boy was picked up by the border patrol & taken to jail. 70+ miles 1 way, yep he is there, does not even seem glad to see me. No bail, just prove who I am & fill out a form. Surprise, have a helper go with me to help get him in the truck. Soon as he gets close to truck & I open the door in he jumps. Will this continue??? As I start driving he wants out. After a few miles he settles down. Wants out when I open the gate at the yard, manage to keep him in the truck, he stays while I close the gate. Drive around the yard & tell him OK get out & he just looks at me. Mother Bobby who went with me is talking to him. After a little while he gets out.
I can't go any where until I dog Prof the fence. Going to put up some chicken wire, where I think he can get out.
