This morning i fed George and Hamish as usual, Liver this morning one of their fave meals
while they were eating, i was busy getting washed and changed for work and also to take them out about an hour later for their usual hour and a half morning walk
once they had finished eating, they both went and laid on the settee. today also happened to be be bin day, so while they were asleep, i got the rubbish together and took it outside to the front of the house, where i had taken the bin round last night, ready for collection this morning. anyway, mission accomplised, i came back inside and carried on getting ready, about 15 minutes later, i realised that i could not see Hamish on the settee, so i looked around downstairs, looked in the back garden, they have a dog flap, then went upstairs, thinking he must have gone back upstairs to bed, no sign of him
i could then feel the panic starting to set in. then the lightbulb in my head went off, look in the front garden, i opened the front door and who was standing on the step, talk about pleased to see one another
, he must have slipped through, when i opened the door to put the rubbish out and then of course i did not notice
thank dog i had actually remembered to shut the gate and as it was only about 5.30am there was nobody around, he did not make a noise, if it had been George, he would have barked, it just goes to show you, that you have to have eyes in the back of your head
Stephanie, George and Hamish xxx
