Nightmare Weekend

I'm tired just reading the story. Glad the dog was found!
-
OMG - It does sound rough, but I'm laughing at where the BC was found! :D:D:D
-
OMG Vicki:eek:
I was dreading reading the outcome to this but relieved to see where he was after all that time, poor boy!!

All is well, good to hear. Sorry about the undo stress…typical right..
We had that happen two years ago eh we found a cat (ended up becoming our cat Lucy), in a kill shelter south of Houston. She is a Maine Coon/Bob tail mix, so fairly large, at the time 17 lbs, very hard cat to miss, right?? We just had to rescue her from that horrible shelter, so we did on a monday morning at 8 am. Two days later we were scheduled to go out of town for a week to the beach(timing couldn'y had been worst..). We hired a pet sitter to come a few times each day to feed/walk and play with the dogs and now new cat..
1 1/2 day into our trip, the pet sitter called saying she could not find the cat anywhere inside and though she had accidentally let her out..Lucy was not to be let out, she had merely lived with us for 3 days..I am freaking out, my hubby is MAD and my kids are crying...
The next day our very dear friend Wendy came over to see if she could find Lucy, she looked for a good while inside and out but no Lucy was to be found...by now I am thinking, I got to get home, so I drive by my self back to Houston (4 hour drive) and look all over the neighbor hood, convinced she was out there somewhere..couldn't find her, once I got inside I noticed one of my kitchen cupboard dooors ajar so I go to close it...Once I closed it I heard something in the cabinet...LUCY, she had been sleeping in that cupboard for days...and nobody had found her...typical..but happy ending indeed. -
omg vicky, that is everyones worst nightmare - am just glad you found the old soul eventually. My mother always looks after my dogs while i am away - she has raised Dobes for 30 years so is very sensible with them - and luckily she can just let them run in the secure field we have so no need to go off the property to walk them. But she did think she lost the cat once a few years back - Ali the younger cat was screaming as only a Siamese can - something she only does when she cant find the older cat Bourneville. So my mum scoured the house looking for him - after 2 hours decided he must have escaped - she thought she saw him across the road, and apparently was crawling through bramble bushes like a 70 year old commando - only to discover a moggy from the farm down the hill. When she got back to the house, covered in mud, blood(her own from scratches from brambles) she saw Bourneville sitting inside the house on the windowsill in a nice sunny patch - he must have been watching her all the time thinking "what is that idiot doing".

Lucy in the cabinet.

I know right..now I know to check in cabinets and in boots, she likes to hide in those too. My other cats I have had in the past never did that, so this was a new one for me..

I had a feeling something was wrong Vicki as you were so quiet.
So pleased your Bc dog was found safe and well, i must admit it is a funny story:D
