DOGGONE IT




I can safely say I have a one of a kind dog. Let me explain. My wonderful parents went out this past weekend and purchased Harrison a outdoors kennel. It is fairly large and he can safely run around outside since our yard is not fenced in. My dad and brother spent hours Saturday building this kennel, putting in a floor and roof. We thought putting a floor in would stop him from digging out. My dad then had the bright idea of putting 20 bags of cedar chips in to also stop the digging. Sunday they finally finished it about dark. I put Harrison in it about 45 minutes before Jim was to arrive home just for him to check the area out before he had to be put in there the next day while we were at work. I locked the gate with a lock and key and went inside. 45 minutes later just about on the dot the doorbell rings and rings and rings. I go to the door and about the same time Jim opens the door and pushes Harrison in. I was amazed, how did you get him out I said, since he didn't have a key yet. He was sitting in the front yard Jim said as he went back out the door to go see where he had escaped from. He came back in and said there was a tiny place he was able to pull back and get out. So again last night my dad and Jim went to fix that spot and then Jim put him in there again. We started eating dinner and after about 20-30 minutes I said "you may want to go check on Harrison to make sure he's not out." He went out and guess what??? Yep, Harrison again was in the front yard. He looked and there was a small spot he was able to contort his body and get out. When it was all over Harrison came in and got in our bed ( yes he's 75 pounds and sleeps in the bed with us) and laid his head on Jim's pillow and fell asleep and was drooling on Jim's pillow. I was making fun of him and was talking like I was him ( which I do a lot, I think due to the fact I always wanted a Ventriloquist doll when I was little and my Mama never got me one so now I use my kids and dog and say funny stuff like it's coming from them with an accent they don't even have) Anyway, I was like " Man all this escaping and body contorting to get out of my new kennel is making me ty-erd." Well, I said that but I promise with the accent it was funny.
