Hi angel friends, we had an incident happen around late morning. Holly and i were out gardening, my parents went out to shop, and they came home. Holly and i had the backyard gate open. my mom and dad came home, we didn't notice, until my dad opened back door, and the dogs ran outside, Blue took off, out the gate, and he ran off. oh my! we all rushed out to try to catch him. he flew off very fast. my mom and dad went in the minivan to find him,and Holly and i walked all over our neighborhood to find him, but we all couldn't find him. my parents drove down the road, my mom texted me, and said, that Blue had gone through the golf course, and ran across the turnpike area and over near malerba's farm, he was brought in by the ice rink skating place, they called the animal control. Lisa got out of work, to confirm to the animal control, Blue's ownership, by vet records. Lisa, my mom, and dad brought Blue home, he's ok and was a bit out of breathe, and is resting. we're so glad, thankful, and relieved that Blue is ok. he needs a little more training, so that he doesn't take off like that, and that he listens when we call his name. he's a good pup, but needs training. it was upsetting when we all couldn't find him, but we're thankful that malerba's family, and the ice skating rink helped find Blue, and he's back home, and safe :)
