We're dogsitting for dd#1's boxer.... . This in and of itself makes for interesting times with my 5 pound poodle (who owns this joint and wants to make sure that 60 pound boxer knows it!). Today we had the front door open and the boxer was standing looking out the storm door. Gripey says to me, reckon we ought to shut that door? (because she has hit it hard and opened it before) Just as he says that she hits the door and out she goes! :eek: Dd forgot her collar so she has no i.d. on and she won't come when called outdoors. UGH! Gripey takes off after her and I'm gimping around b/c my back is out...so I'm trying to get some dog treats. I finally get outside and Gripey has her cornered and a hold of her. Tells me to get her leash....... . Geeze.....I could pinch her head off and how ironic it is that she did as we were talking about closing the door! I'm so happy that she didn't make a run for it and not come back. We'd have some major 'splainin' to do...not sure if dd would understand. Whew!

I'm so glad everything worked out okay! :) Our old dog used to be like that, not come when called ouside! The first thing I did with Baxter is train him to sit and stay! He goes outside with us without a leash, and always stays right with us, no matter where we are! :D

Heidi must have been in hot pursuit & the boxer had to run in fear for it's life.
