On close by neighborhood areas a couple of miles away people have posted found dogs that matched the missing dogs. Before that old farts post hardly anyone posted about their dog going missing. Makes me wonder.
My next door neighbor grew up on a farm and has always let his dogs roam free. He did walk several houses in either direction popper scooping though. His Dalmatian taught Camber the neighborhood was her yard and couldn't let her out much. His only dog now is and old dachshund he inherited and she never leaves her yard. Pepper tends to sniff her way south couple of houses south where another golden lives.
Mom used to leash the dogs to the tree out front with a couple of 20ft leashes leashed together. Pepper freaking wriggles out of the collar! Think I need to get a harness. Gotta use one to have her hangin as a service dog anyways.

We had a harness for our current lab when she couldn't wear a collar due to her eye surgery. She wriggled out of that and chewed it up. Glad she can wear a collar with the Pet Safe range collar on it. If she does run off, she goes to the nearest neighbor up the hill to play with their dog. It is only a few hundred yards and she runs back to our house on the ditch.
We had turkey at the MiL house Thursday since my wife's brother was in town. Then we had turkey Sunday with the free turkey we get from where I work. Cleaned up the remainder of summer yard stuff Saturday to prep for the big storm coming on Sunday with up to 8" of snow and high winds. We had the wind but no snow. I can take one or the other, but both at the same time is miserable.
Oh, happy Monday.
