PS - this is why I bought a cat collar with a bell for my Chihuahua - lol! She's usually by my feet but she's so small I don't always see her. It has definitely helped

I just am so blessed that something did not happen to her and I wanted everyone to remember that the holidays are a busy time with people coming in and out and we have to keep an extra special eye on our babies. I saw here come in the house - but she is only 3 months old and I should of double checked. It also taught me humility as I always think how could someone lose their chihuahua ~ now I do not judge.

It was a mistake and an angel watched over her until you were able to get her back inside. Love and spoil her extra today. You have certainly caused me to be on guard more than usual and that's a good thing.

Well I have to share what happened to me last night so that it will make everyone aware of how easy something like this can happen. I was at my dear friends house Gail and we were exchanging some Christmas dresses for our girls. Gail has a big front yard with a hedge all the way around it and we took the girls out to go potty. We called them in and they all ran in. Gail and I were talking about the gifts and our babies and all of a sudden I heard Maggie cry - at first I thought as she has a large home that she got stuck somewhere. So Gail, her son, husband and I all went on a frantic search. I said I think it came from outside even though I saw her come in. We went outside and sitting on the middle of the lawn was my baby Maggie, shaking and scared. The only thing that we can figure out what happened is before we shut the door she ran back outside. I was mortified and so was Gail as we have always considered our selves such good dog parents. Thank God that an angel was watching over my little girl or she could of been gone forever. So during this busy time during the holidays make sure that you keep an extra close eye on your babies with people coming in and out. I did not share this story to get any lectures as I already feel terrible and cried my self to sleep last night, but if my story can make you more aware of how easy this can happen then it is worth it. So like my mother use to tell me never say never.... Nancy, Abbey-Rose and Maggie-Mae
