(1) When you take your two dogs for a walk late at night, make sure
both of them actually come into the back garden with you when you get
back home*.
(2) And then when you get to the back door, do a double check to make sure you haven't shut one out*
(3) If you ignore those first two points, you may, just may, find
that your back gate has a massive hole in it where your abandoned dog
has clawed it's way through from outside.
(4) You may also find that the front door and back door frames are
really really scratched up, and that there are muddy pawprints over
both doors and the whole garden fence.
(5) Finally, DO NOT BLOG ABOUT IT, unless someone reports you to the RSPCA
* In my defence, I would like to say that both our dogs are
infamous for skulking behind you, and sneaking through the door / gate
behind you as you turn to close it.
PS She is absolutely fine by the way.
