Yesterday I watched daddy cut our backyard and then he went to the frontyard cutting grass. Daddy is a hard worker though he is retired and stays home with us all day. He is 69 years old. Well, after he cut the grass he went to the mailbox while he was in the front yard to bring in the mail and came through the front door normally he always comes through the back door when he has finished putting up the lawn mowers. So he came in the front door and I let him know I needed to go outside and without thinking that he forgot to close the gate he let me out the backdoor. I immediately ran to where the gate was open and took off on an adventure. In the meantime daddy remembered he left the gate open and went into the backyard to see if I was still there and he noticed me coming from the down the road on the right side of our house. He called for me to get in the yard, I was having an adventure and just ignored him calling me and continued on down the road to the left of the house and daddy in hot pursuit, now he is an older man so he is not running just walking behind me. I stopped near the end of the road to smell some stuff someone had in their backyard and that is where daddy caught up with me. He picked me up and gave me a spanking told me I better learn to listen when he calls me. He said I should have stayed in the yard now what dog in is right mind seeing a gate wide open will stay in his yard.

Anyway when mommy came home from work he told her we almost lost Sabrina and mommy asked why he explained everything even him forgetting to close the gate. Told mommy if I had not stopped to smell the people's backyard there is no way he could have caught up with me and if I made it to the main road I would more likely be hit by a car and been killed or we would never see me again though I had my chip in me.

That my folks was the end of my great adventure.
