From what we have pieced together the Brothers Dim escaped from our backyard around 3 PM, frolicked in a neighbor's yard, trotted across a large field, waded through a creek down to a small inlet and chased each other along the beach until they stopped to play with a friendly chocolate lab. The owner of the lab checked Ike's collar (at some point along the way Turner's collar disappeared) and gave us a call around 5 PM.
The red A is where they ended up -- if you know us well enough you know our street and where they started from. What boggles my mind is Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb have no fear of cars, and by following the creek and shoreline they completely by-passed two busy roads.

Wow! Those two are something else! Did you ask the chocolate lab dog owner who called you if perhaps he'd like two more chocolate labs??!
ReplyDeleteAt least they stayed off the busy roads...see, they're smarter than you thought! ;o)
Oh my gosh, those dogs are 1) insane and 2) lucky as hell that they didn't get hit!
ReplyDeleteHow did they get out?
Connie- As crazy as they are I could never give them up..they're my 90 lb babies!
ReplyDeleteSarah- Brian took them to the vet. When he left he took them through the gates, when he got home they came in through the front door and after a bit he let them out and forgot the gates were still open.
