Squirrels!
Our daily routine has changed
with the addition of Bandit.
Mostly my routine has changed.
Every morning finds me trekking
through the backyard trying to
teach a very quick and sneaky
puppy the boundaries.
She seems to love the house two
doors up and so has been back on
the leash until last night and
this morning. So far...so good.
I keep the leash in my hand and
am prepared to put it on her at
her next transgression.
Anyhoo...Chloe usually comes
along and she is almost never
leashed in the yard. This
allows her the freedom to
chase the millions, well maybe
not millions, but all of the
squirrels. They tease and
taunt her...rushing up a
tree at the last moment.
The other morning this happened
and I wandered up that way.
The weather is getting nicer and
it is more fun to explore...
All of a sudden I heard
a thudnot far
from where
I was standing!
A squirrel!
Had fallen!
On his back!
From a huge tree!
He flipped himself over
and ran as fast as he could
while I breathed a sigh of
relief that he had not landed
ON ME!
Good grief!
SO...
take it from me.
Watch out for falling squirrels!
That could hurt!
