Lost Dogs and aborted holidays
Micky Started conversation Oct 17, 2002
The holiday did not go as planned! We had put a huge amount of effort into find a dog sitter for Toby and had found a really nice lady local to us. We dropped Toby off on Saturday night and relaxed, ready to catch an early flight on Sunday morning. About 11pm we got a phone call to tell us that Toby had escaped and could not be found.
We rushed over and search for him for several hours but no luck. We went home, unpacked and tried to get some sleep. Sunday morning, very worried and much the worse for lack of sleep we printed off some posters and went in search of him. People where so helpfully and our mobile phone rang all day with sightings, the local cabs where looking for him and complete stranges gave up some of their Sunday to help us look. We finally found him that evening in a school and managed to drag him under the fence. We were exhausted, bitterly disappointed at losing our holiday but very glad to get our dog back. Toby seemed quite unaffected by his night of freedom thought he was very pleased to see us.
Next time we go away it is dog prision for Toby!
