Tonight my mum and dad finally let me go out into the front yard.... Without my lead!!! I felt so free!! I was such a good girl, I hope they let me do it again. Maybe next time cause they trust me, Ill make a run for it and see what else is in that big wide world!? I mean, why not!? Haymish does it all the time!! I wonder why he never makes it very far???..........

Thank goodness for delivery men. Even when they're at the wrong house.

I escaped again on Monday, when the delivery man came to the door (with a package for next door). The kids opened the screen door, and away I went!

This time I only went around the block before someone found me and rang home. That nametag really gets a workout!

I heard a rumour the grownups are planning a spring on the front gate, so it will automatically close. I also heard them say they were going to train me not to run to the front door when there are visitors.

Good luck, humans.

Steve McQueen has nothing on me. I know how to do a REAL escape.

On Thursday my neighbour came in to borrow the lawnmower. That's when I saw it - an open gate. Quick as a flash, I was out the gate andon the footpath. And when I start running, NO-ONE can stop me. Jenny drove up and down all the local streets, but she couldn't see me.

So Jenny told Chris. When Chris came home, luckily there was a message on the phone saying that I had been found in the next block. So Chris went over to pick me up.

The lovely lady in Shadforth St had played with me, given me chicken and water, but then I got restless again. So I escaped from HER place too. Before Chris even got there.

Hm. Chris walked the long way home, looking for me. Then Spike got brought out to track me down, but he was a terrible tracker. He didn't even sniff at the gate in Shadforth St where I had played for a while. 

Chris and Spike walked all over Mosman looking for me. It was definitely great exercise for both of them. But they couldn't find me.

Somehow I safely managed to cross Canrobert St, Raglan St, and the really scary Military Rd. Then I walked down the hill and arrived at the beach. It was great! I had a lovely swim at the beach, and had great fun snapping at flies and rolling in the sand.

Then, just because I was walking in the middle of the road, two nice teenage girls decided to rescue me. They took me home, looked at my collar,  and rang Chris at home.

Chris came and got me in the car and brought me home. I was soooo tired after my big adventure, I went straight to sleep.

A pretty good day, all up.  What do you think?
