Dog Whisperer
On Friday when we came home from work, Levy was barking at something outside so Kira went out to investigate and there was a black and white dog, it was so frightened that it ran behind the wall, and hid among the reeds, Kira and Kayla tried to get it out but nothing could convince it to come out. I had seen nothing of this so when Kayla called me to have a look what type of dog it was it was already going dark............ I thought it was a rabbit, and phoned Kira to ask her whether she was sure it was a dog.............. "Mom it growled at me, do rabbits growl" ........... okay now we know it is definately a dog...... there was nothing we could do so we left it there and as soon as it was light in the morning....... Kayla did her impersonation of Ceaser Milan "The Dog Whisperer" and went in to recover the dog.
Well she had to go in, on her haunches, cutting the reeds that were between the wall and the fence as she went, she had heard that you have to go in backwards so the dog does not feel any threat......... she went in with the collar like a lasso so that she could put it over the dog's head as soon as she was close enough.......... what would we do with out TV and Ceaser Milan. Kayla being Kayla had convinced herself that this dog could be rabid............... that it could have crept away to have babies............. that it could have been frightened by 4 young "high" boys she had seen walking down the road.......... you have to be prepared for all eventualities................
Well as it turned out it was a terrified Boston Terrior a cute little thing shaking like a leaf, obviously something or someone had really frightened it ......... he had neither a collar or a name tag, so we went through to the vets to see if they knew perhaps who the owners were, we called the SPCA to see if anyone had phoned to report it missing............ no luck........ so it looks like we might have a new addition to the family. Levy thinks he has died and gone to heaven someone to play with at last ....... Rocky the cat is quite tolerant not amused but tolerant............ but Peroni the "wild" cat that Levy found for us when it was a few weeks old ............ well he is just having nothing of this, he keeps on creeping up on the dog from behind I think he has heard it is very frightened, and is using this information to frighten the poor thing to death............ the only way we could get him to sleep last night was to cover him completely with a blanket so he was completely hidden.............
Kayla is very proud of herself to say the least, and as this little dog, becomes part of our family and worms its way into our hearts............. we are hoping that its owners don't come and claim him back............ We have named him Sydney.................
