What a Bad Girl

See that little angel there? Would you ever guess after seven years of being Snickers the Wonder Dog that today she decided to be a bad, bad girl?

We can let Snickers out and she never leaves the yard. We’ve been doing that since the day we got her. She stays in the yard. At worst, she wanders next door. But she always comes back. Not today. Not for a little while at least.

Sheryl went out to look for Snickers after she didn’t come back to the door. We didn’t think much about it. Then Sheryl went to look more. Called her. No Snickers.

We got scared.

I jumped in the car and Sheryl ran up the hill behind our house. I found Snickers first. Well…kinda found her. She was walking along with two Chinese ladies who live in our neighborhood. From what they told me, Snickers decided that she’d go on a walk with them. After they tried to shoo her home for a while, they gave up and Snickers went on a mile-long walk with them. By the time I saw Snickers and her new owners at the end of my street, well, I was relieved and aggravated.

Apparently her royal highness knew where she was going and the ladies were going to walk her home. They did. Whew.

Today, Snickers the Wonder Dog is just Snickers the Dog. She has a lot of making up to do.
