MemberWas at my last block week at college, we stay in a caravan, 3 people, 4 dogs. (my 2, and 2 papillons)
The site we stay at has a large ornamental pond next to the caravans, with fish and ducks. Normally when we come back from colege the owner calls the ducks in to bed. Unfortunately he was out! So Tuesday we come back from college, I tied the girls up to the picnic table as the caravan was too hot to put them in, go into the caravan to get their harnesses to tie them out properly.
As I got to the door to come out, I see the ducks, so I turned to my friend, and say sit on the bench otherwise we are gonna lose it. As I said it, Jess somehow manages to break free from her collar and it straight over to the ducks (who by this point were on the pond), she dives straight in, headfirst and is busy trying to get to these ducks, Myself and a friend rush over calling her, telling her to leave, etc, etc. The pond has 4ft banks, which are really steep. the ducks got out safely somehow, so there is Jess in the middle of this stagnent pond, trying to find the ducks, 3 of us are surrounding the pond still trying to call her out.
She eventually comes to me, and is put in a crate till the owners come home and put the ducks away.
4am that night, Jess wakes me up crying, take her out thinking she needed the loo, nothing. So go back to bed, 30 mins later she crying again, I get up get dressed and walk her round the grounds for her butt to explode 3 times, take her back to caravan, clean her up. go back and clean up the mess and then go back to sleep.
I went to college that day, meaning to do my practical assessment with Jess, but had to defer as she wasnt well enough. Inbetween that, I found out I have no tax on the car (month out of date! :-[) MOT was due and I managed to lock my car keys in the boot of the car. :-[
Car is all sorted now, I have to do my practical in October now.

MemberI did try to swop Cubert for Jess, but Bev knew! 😀 😀 😀 p:-)
I was gobsmacked tbh Suz, Jess is the ‘good one’ of the two, its normally Trixie who is doing stuff like that.
And her collar wasnt broken, which I cant work out as she had it on all day, unless the clasp wasnt fixed properly! :-\ ??? ???

Memberhahaha yeah i think she might notice that swap 😀
Amazing how they can slip their collars when they want to >:D
take it the ducks were ok?

MemberShe broke free from the collar, literally, she didnt slip out, when I picked it up the clasp had come undone!
Ducks were fine, one lost their egg. but the next day, one had 5 duckling with her! :-*
The girls were promptly put in the caravan when we saw them! 🙂

MemberI have a list as long as my arm on what Trixie has caught. :-[
Thankfully Jess hasnt caught anything yet.

MemberOh I see – wow she must have pulled on it with some force 😮
July 8, 2008 at 9:30 pm #108513Izzie
MemberIts one of those side release type collars, so either she is bliming strong or it wasnt done up properly, as it hasnt come undone since!
