The boy terrified me tonight.
I was a bit late finishing horses so late walking and decided to go for a quick one round the fields at home.
It’s mainly Rape which has shot up scarily fast. We have stayed away for a while but he and Basil are pretty good at being told not to go in and generally stay on the grass edges.
Cecil does run off, he has the terrier instinct but always comes back, I’m very confident in that fact.
Until tonight, it was so quick I didn’t even see which direction he’d gone.
Stayed for ages shouting but nothing. I decided to run Basil home before I lost him aswell and OH and myself went back in the truck.
He was lost in a block of 150 acres of tall as me thick rape.
He drove the perimeter I walked through shouting. After a while I heard him cry.
Managed to work out which direction which wasn’t easy as we are near a air base so constant planes.
Eventually found my poor frightened little yellow dog stuck in a (humane so not injured) fox snare. All perfectly legal and correct, my own stupid fault for going that way. He’s usually so clever and won’t go near them but I’m guessing in full “chase the rabbit” mode he got it wrong.
It was so awful, the genuine feeling of fear and realisation that he really wasn’t coming back. It only lasted 45 mins but it seemed endless.
One happy to be home little dog who will be on a lead until harvest!
