Last night, I got in trouble..again...

Mom let me and AJ out into the field for our potty run and when she called us back, only AJ returned. Mom whistled for me, but I couldn't get back to the house. She even got out the cookie can, which makes my feet run like the wind when I hear it rattling, but I couldn't return.

That's when mom got worried and she went in to the TV room and told dad that "Bubba is gone and you'd best go look for your dog".

Dad put on his shoes and got the big 'ol flashlight (the one that shines for about a mile). Mom got the other flashlight and they headed out to the field. That's when I started barking like crazy for them! I tried to tell them with my barking that I had been kidnapped by aliens and tossed on the other side of the fence down by the Laguna. I barked and barked, to let them know I was safe but they still needed to save me!

All of a sudden, dad's light shined right on me, where I was on the other side of our fence! By this time I was hysterical (hoping that they would believe the story about the aliens). Mom was mad, I could tell by the names she called me.. poop-head, butt-head, dern dog..well, you get the drift..

Dad tried to get me to jump over the fence, but I was just too weak from all the excitement and could only run frantically back and forth, while continuing to bark out my story about being kidnapped. Dad has arthritis in his hands and was trying to lift me over the fence. Mom was still mad and yelled at me to get my butt over that fence! Geesh.. I don't think she believed my story.

Anyway, by this time, I knew that dad's patience was running low, so I managed to hook my feet on the fence and crawl over.. *WHEW.. (almost left a main body part on the top fence wire, too, but mom didn't care).

We got back to the house and hahaha.. I STILL got my bowl of milk, but first I had to listen to mom tell me what a bad bad bad boy I was.. ho hum, I've heard THAT one before.. Today dad and I went back outside and he hid in his shop and watched me. He is SOOO sneaky. I wandered over to the fence and stood and looked at it. Then I slo-o-owly looked over my shoulder one way and then slo-o-owly looked the other way to see if dad was watching me, but I didn't see him. So I placed my feet on the top of the fence and was JUST ready to leap when dad yelled! YIKES! *BUSTED!

Dad's been working at the fence for the past few hours, now. He's raised the top at least two feet.. *rats...
