Cow Dog Comes Home!!!

So I'm happy to report that Jersey has made her way back, although it's safe to say that she actually never left. You see, my half-brained cow of a dog managed to lock herself in the shed yesterday morning, and her half-brained owner didn't think to check there before alerting the masses. A big thanks to all who spent hours driving around, pissing people off for driving so slow. I very much appreciate the hugs and positive thinking that I received from everyone....even though now I feel like a total ass for panicking oh-so-much.

Jersey is very much happy to be inside today, since she probably spent the majority of yesterday crammed in between folding chairs and my stash of summer clothes, stored in giant crates. She didn't potty all day and spent a good portion of her first few minutes of freedom relieving herself. What a good dog. Stuffed lobster was equally excited for her return.

I do have to say "wow" at the Kootenai County Animal Control lady (sorry I don't know your name). She is amazing. First of all, she called yesterday (from her cell phone) after I reported Jersey missing to ensure me that she would do some extreme searching and to offer some tips as I was on my own dog-hunt. After I found Jersey, I made sure to call animal control and cancel the missing dog report. Mrs. Animal Control then called me this morning to express how happy she was that my little friend was found and wanted to know the whole story. How sweet and so unexpected from animal control.

Our happy little family has been reunited. Cheers!
