Another Monty adventure! Forwarded for Pam...
Pat
I've gone to work. Two Berners are shut in the yard while Dick takes a
nap. The mail lady has come and gone, the senior center bus is back
across the street and the neighborhood is quiet.... too quiet.
"Maybe I gotta go for a walk," says Monty. He sees a leash on the
closet doorknob inside. "If I can just get it, maybe Dad will take me
for a walk."
The small window is ajar about 4 inches. It's a slider that is only a
foot high below a large picture window. "Drat! The storm door is in
the way" Bang, bang, BANG! It bounces against the house and then far
enough out that a paw grabs it and pulls it away from the house... it
leaves the window accessible.
Four inches by 12 inches... perfect, because in a few moments, the
opening is about 10 by 12. Then there's the chair in front of the
window to slide under. "Boy, Mom is stupid. She could be the winner on
the Funniest Videos if she had the camera aimed at me sneaking into the
house," Monty says. Over the window sill, under the chair, run, run, run
down the hall.
"Hey, Dad, here I am! huh? wake up, Dad, wake up. It's time for my
walk..."
So much for a peaceful nap!
Pamela and Dick
with Allegra ("if what you want lies buried, dig until you find it")
and Monty ("No matter how often you're scolded, don't buy into the
guilt thing and pout...run right back and make friends")
