Thursday afternoon anxiety attack

Jack and Dora escaped from the fenced back yard and were missing for about 45 minutes this afternoon - 45 minutes of extreme anxiety for Maria and me.

The neighbor kids said they saw them headed for the Big Four Trail that runs behind our property. I guessed that they would end up by the baseball diamonds in the park and, sure enough, that's where I found Jack. I took him home and kenneled him and went out to look for Dora.

I had just pulled into the park playground parking area when Dora came trotting up. I opened the car door and she jumped in, none the worse for wear.

Phew!
