My dog has been behaving questionably for about a week because he's had a horrible infection...
The ridiculous weather we've been having has pushed a fence back behind some the compost heap, behind some trellis in my garden.
Sunday afternoon my dog was running around outside, I put DD down for a nap, came back, and he was gone!
I panicked, and me, DH and a friend who was here went running into the garden shouting his name, over both neighbours fences. Nothing.
The back is has a line if trellis with a gate, then behind that, a compost heap, shed and wheelbarrow etc..
It's where the foxes seem to congregate and stinks, and is like a mudslide.
I went round there, stepped up onto the heap and noticed the fence had pushed back at the corner and then heard him behind there.
Tried to push through to get him, no luck. DH tried and my friend and I shouted and shouted.
A boy came into the garden and called out that there was a dog there. My dog was panicking and bit me the other day (when he had a high fever) so I called out to the boy not to touch him but asked for the house number so I could come and get him.
His mother came into the garden and told me it and while DH is still trying to push through branches and brambles and the fence to get our dog, I drive to the next street.
I am Covered in mud and foxes shit and soaked due to the rain.
I knock on the door and start to pull my boots off and the owner says don't worry, she'll just mop, I protest that it's no problem but she clearly just wants the dog gone. I go into the garden and my dog has destroyed a football and is covering behind trees. I grab him, pick him up (because he's dirtier than me!) and try to pass him to DH but there's too many branches and brambles.
There is so side gate or anything so I have to carry my mud covered dog through
their pristine house and apologise profusely.
The don't look happy!
I was ridiculously busy yesterday so asked DH to pop round there with a new football and a bottle of wine or something.
Yesterday evening I asked him if he's done it, he said no, he doesn't need to, it's not a big deal, we never have to see them again.
I think he's wrong, he laughed it off and said they probably found it funny.
WWYD??
