After three days missing Lola came home on her own! I heard a tag jingle that sounded remarkably like Lola's, so I eagerly looked outside only to see a neighbor walking her mini-schnauzer. So my heart sank. But then just moments later the neighbor knocked on my door and said "I think your dog may have gotten out!" And pointed down the street to Lola sitting on the curb. I was overjoyed. I went outside and Lola came running up. My guess is that it really was her that I heard in the yard, but she had moved by the time I got to the window. Thank goodness for the neighbor who saw her and took the time to knock on my door.

Now Lola is safely back home. She was dirty and had some burs in her fur. I wonder where her adventures took her. She had a small breakfast and a nice drink of water. She went up and climbed into her crate almost immediately. She's finally back in her safe place.
