why did I do that?!!!

Oh my goodness!!! Friday... I chased another rabbit...well I thought it was a rabbit. It was black and white...but the funny thing about this rabbit was that it had a really long tail. My mom & sister are always having to chase me into the back two acres ...or the neighbors...and bring me home. I think they think that I am running away, but all I really want to do is chase the "critters" out of the yard! I just want to keep them safe! Anyway, friday, this one rabbit that I chased...got reallly mad & I'm not sure WHAT he did...but man oh man did it STINK!!!!! I STILL STINK!!!! I'm not really that girly or anything, but I cant even stand myself right now!!! When I decided that I had had enough of that stinky rabbit I looked around for home, but I couldn't find it anywhere! I ran to the first place that looked like a front porch, but it was an abandoned building. Two huge black dogs cornered me on that porch for almost 10 hours!!! I could hear my mom & sister calling & calling. I wanted to run to them or bark back , but those two big bullies wouldn't let me. I'm sure they were just doing their job to...protecting...but all of a sudden I was feeling like that stinky rabbit! I was so scared & thirsty. I could hear my mom getting more & more panicky as she looked for me. I didn't know it then but she had even called out the sherriff & the animal shelter to try and find me. I could hear her driving & calling for hours, but I didn't dare even try to move. About 8:45 when the sun was almost gone...I thought for sure that my mom had given up and that I was going to spend my first night outside since I was lost in Lincoln National Forrest last fall ( I was rescued and adopted last November after spending about a month or more on my own in the forrest...SCARY!!!) But then in the disatnce I heard a car driving up that long dirt road from the highway...was it more bad news...or could it be?!!!! I knew that car! It was my mom & sister too!!! I wasn't even afraid to run by those big dogs and neither was my mom!!! She was already out of the car & they were going to get it if they moved even one inch towards me!!! I have never run so fast in my life! My throat was dry from being outside all day & my voice was hoarse, I could barely call out to my mom! She was crying and so was I...then she smelled me! But she held me anyway. We drove home so fast!!! Partly because we were happy , but mostly because I smelled so bad...maybe that was why my throat was sore...anyway...mom rushed me right into the kitchen and into the sink. First she checked me all over for cuts & bites, then she put this awful red juice all over me & let me soak while she rubbed all of my bones & talked softly to me to help me calm down, I was still crying and shaking. She wrapped me up in a big towel & then a blanket and we all sat on the couch and ate chicken noodle soup & snuggled till we fell asleep. For the first time since I was adopted, I didn't run around when I went outside in the morning...I styaed right by my mom & my sister! I just didn't feel like exploring anymore...
