tired puppies

Sometimes the Huskybutts see an opportunity to escape and they take it. Boy, do they take it. The chance arose for them Tuesday night and they made a run for it. When this happens we know we just have to let them go (they run faster than us) and wait for them to return (when they get hungry). But I still worry about them being out there in the neighborhood. I worry about them. I worry about the worst. I worry about them finding the pond that our street is named for and getting a hold of a duck…or something getting a hold of them. And they are beautiful and handsome and I worry that someone will snatch them. I’m like the mother of teenagers worrying until they return home. And they always return home. Sometimes dirty and most of the time tired.Yesterday they seemed worn out all day long. I wonder what they did all night. I wonder where they went and what they saw. I wonder what made them so tired. I wonder if they went all the way to Alvaton and back. They were so tired yesterday that last night I even caught them spooning.
