I am Stella, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges. Help! Oh, me! Oh, my! Wiggles knocked a gate aside and squeezed through a gap in our invincible fence.
Me: I hear her barking outside! I’m going after her!
Stella: What if she gets in the road? What if a monstrous rolling box runs over her? What if…what if…what if we never see her again?
Miss Sweetie: Wiggles is smarter than I am. I was outside, too. I didn’t leave the yard. Wiggles must have had a good reason for walking into the unknown land.
Me: We’re back!
Stella: Wiggles! Where did you go?
Me: I found her standing on the front porch, facing the front door, waiting to be let back into the house.
Stella: Why ever did you squeeze out of the fence?
Wiggles: I wanted adventure.
Doodlebug: But you came right back.
Wiggles: I had enough adventure. And I remembered. My food is in here.
Tiger: She will try it again, Lady Human. She’s just that kind.
Me: And you aren’t?
Tiger: I know where I am well off.
Me: I’m going outside…alone…to work on the fence. No more adventures.
Stella: All right, tell me, Wiggles. What happened out there? Why did you come right back?
Wiggles: I heard something. I think it was Lady Human. She was talking to the Great Creator. I had to go to the door and bark.
Stella: How could you hear her? She was inside. Until we heard you bark from outside, she didn’t even know that you were gone.
Wiggles: But He did.

Yes! Praise the LORD! And she doesn’t go out the front door when we take her to the vet, etc. She usually goes out the back. She wasn’t outside the fence for more than a very few minutes.
