Evening all :) Hope you've had a lovely day :)

All is well here in the puppy household, NOW, but I had a horrendously stressful middle of the day today, when my beloved dogs went AWOL! :eek: :(

They usually do their own thing hooning around at the yard, generally pretty close to me, popping up when I whistle, and coming back to sit at my feet for a biscuit, but today they disappeared into the bleak open fens for the best part of two hours :eek:

To say that I was upset and scared is an understatement, but thankfully after two loooooong hours of traipsing round calling and crying, and just as I was going into absolute melt down :( they turned up again. I really thought they had gone for good/been stolen/run over, or all kinds of other horrific scenarios going through my mind :( :(

I think that they spotted some stuuuupid Christmas day walkers who thought it ok to walk their dogs over YO's land, and went off in pursuit of them... :mad: :mad:

They came home exhausted :rolleyes: had their v late lunch and have spent the rest of the day enjoying the fire, sporting their fancy new collars. :rolleyes:

What a day for them to chose to go missing. Popple has been known to be cheeky before about coming back to get in the car, but never has she completely gone out of sight for this long with me calling and calling.

I am so, so relieved they are home and safe. I had been feeling blue this Christmas as some of the people I care about have not been here to join us, but for tonight I shall just be grateful that my girls are :) :)

Funnily enough, when mother and I *finally* got home, showered and sat down to swap pressie, the first few we opened were all dog walking orientated :rolleyes:

Anyway, I've had too much bubbly and no dinner as of yet (have burned my finger though, doh!) love and best wishes to you all, and your four legged ones :) Hope you all have a fabulous 2011 :)

When I was a teenager 2 of our GSDs went after a rabbit and disappeared, they were missing for 2 nights :eek:. We eventually had a phone call in the early hours of the morning from a farmer about a mile away, he had found them in his yard when he got up to milk. Mum and I really thought they had gone for good, some tears of happiness shed then I can tell you.
 
I was having horrible, dreadful visions of not being able to find them, and then having to come home and wait for news - I couldn't bear the thought of coming back here without having them in the house, I would have been even more of a wreck :( :(

SO, SO glad that they are here and home safe. I cried with joy when they appeared :o
