Awe, this is just lovely, Beth. I love the way you share with us the most trivial things and turn them into a wonderful story. I can just imagine your woes with your dogs. It made me smile. I've always had dogs and cats. At the moment I have a medium size dog and a cat.
I can so sympathise with this tale. Ulla:)))

Thank you Ulla, I'm so glad you enjoyed this tail about my animals. I think there will at least one more.

I find stories about dogs enjoyable and relaxing. I grew up with many dogs, all beagles, used by my father to go hunting. Even though he said they were not pets, my sisters and I always enjoyed playing with them.

I love your story. It sounds as though you never found Cody. You made him sound really interesting.

Note: You may want to take a second look at this passage: "I had to do a serious sales job with Evan, but he he knew he waas..."

Great story. I'm on my way to your profile to find Part 1 of this saga.

Thank you so much for the review and comments. No we didn't lose Cody. I thought I mentioned that he always returned on his own, but on his own schedule. We always chased after him because there was a lot of traffic in the subdivision behind us. There were also leash laws and we didn't want him to get picked up and taken to the
pound. I did correct that sentence. Thanks for seeing that.

It's in Akita's DNA to be difficult dogs. I am enjoying this saga. LOL

When Dada saw his wagging tail, he decided to let Kokomo inside. (Dad??)

, I had to do a serious sales job with Evan, but he he knew he waas fighting a losing battle. (too many 'he' and WAS??)

so I'll let my readers rest for now while I go about (spacing issue after I)

saga of the animals in the Shelby family.
I had a good time reading about your pets (dogs)
I say it's a good idea to fence all your pets.
Smiled at this--when Carol--

didn't look in any direction; she just ran, not caring which way she was headed. It became obvious I would not need to join a gym to get my cardio-vascular workouts. Mitsy would take care of that.

Thank you Gert. I'm glad you liked reading about out dogs. We loved them but they were a little bit crasy. LOL

You are so welcome.
