Friday 12th

I thought I'd already posted this, but found it in the draft folders.

Yesterday my lovely neighbour, Dale from across the road dropped in for a little chat, she is going away for 2 - 3 weeks in March.

 

She mentioned that the pit bull across the road had left home, and I told her that a little while ago I pulled out of my drive and it had broken free, it was running down the road alongside my car.  And I kid you not - it looked JOYFUL, it was barking and we were smiling at each other all the way down the road.  When we got to the corner and I turned, it stopped and looked round, I thought it would turn back, but obviously not.    I just hope it has found a good home.

 

I did explain to Dale that pit bulls are illegal in Britain because they are classified as a dangerous dog, so there was no way I was going to get out of the car to do anything with it.  But she looked a little strait faced, I think she thought I should have done.   But actually, I really hope it has got a good home.  I used to look at it, tied up on a too short leash, and sometimes thought of ringing Animal Welfare because I didn't think the leash met the minimum length requirement.  So I really hope it is in a happier place, and I am not talking doggie heaven.
