There's a dog in my house

There's a Labrador in my house and I don't know where it's come from. DH appears to of left the back door unlocked by mistake, but it was shut? He's at work and knows nothing about it, I've just got home from work and I have acquired a dog. Collar but no ID tag. What is going on?! How did it get in?! Can labradors open and close doors? My little King Charles cavalier spaniel seems to think he's his new best friend so has obviously enjoyed this unplanned play date (thank god a friendly dog decided to break into my house and not an aggressive one) no idea how long this lab has been here but house has been empty besides our dog since 11am. Someone please tell me how this is possible. I'm baffled. Waiting for DH to get back with the car so I can get him to a vets before they all shut and see if he's chipped.

Just read the thread, any updates on Chester or the pregnant OP, since January?

curiositycreature · 04/06/2019 18:51

Such sad news about the lady. I do recall you saying at the time you had concerns about how well she was looking after the lab, so it’s lovely to hear he has come to live with you. Cavs like friends too!

DonkeyHohtay · 04/06/2019 18:51

Lovely! Now he's yours, post a photo!

So unfortunate about your neighbour, but glad Chester has a new place to call home

WiddlinDiddlin · 04/06/2019 19:08

Thanks for the update, so pleased Chester has come to live with you, that's lovely :)

AlbertWinestein · 04/06/2019 19:09

Oh wow! This thread totally made me cry.

SunshineCake · 04/06/2019 19:09

Oh that nearly made me cry. I'm sorry your neighbour died but how lovely of you to take in her dog. He already knows his way around!

billybagpuss · 04/06/2019 19:12

You know the rules pic of Chester please. Billypup says congratulations on his fur-ever home and sorry to hear about your neighbour.

Thank you for updating. Now we really do need a picture.

Gin96 · 04/06/2019 19:14

I wonder if Chester had all this planned 😉

LakieLady · 04/06/2019 19:16

Awww, Chester really has fallen on his paws!

Very sad about his owner, but he's lucky to have such a nice home with you and your pup, OP.

WhenISnappedAndFarted · 04/06/2019 19:17

I remember this thread! Thanks for the update OP, you're quite right it is a bittersweet ending but I'm glad he's okay.
