The great escape... almost!

So, we discovered that Monty is an escape artist! Well, he didn't go far, but I figured it was worth mentioning, it was too funny!

We have a small fenced in backyard, and last night I couldn't find him for the life of me! I was looking all around the house and all around the backyard (we have a doggie door he uses), but all doors and gates were closed and I just couldn't figure out where he'd gone! I started calling him (his recall is great BTW!) and I hear a scratching noise from behind our shed...

There is the tiniest little space, maybe 8-10 inches wide, between the shed and our back fence, and somehow he had squeezed behind it and was on his way into the neighbors yard! Mind you, he also had to climb over a giant rock I had put in front of the gap, but he was in an adventurous mood!

But he always come when you call and never goes far from the pack, so the second he heard me calling he came squeezing back through! I wish I could have seen the look on my face when I saw him crawling out! He looked very proud of himself, wagging his tiny stump of a tail!

Needless to say, there is now a board blocking the space behind the shed, not that I ever thought that I would need it! *haha*
