It's extremely rare that I *misplace* a dog, as they generally don't want to let me out of their sights for more than a minute. However, yesterday Red Poppy disappeared while we were in the woods, so today I decided I'd put a flexilead on her when we went that way again. Everything was going great, until the clever little tinker soon convinced me that she was safe to come off to play with the others. Well, all I can say is I obviously have MUG tattooed on my forehead, as 5 minutes later she disappeared again.
I found her 10 minutes later with the local childminder and her small group of sweet children enjoying their lunch on a log. Poppy was busy hoovering up the grass around them 🤦♀️
Thankfully, we're all familiar with each other, and they were happy with Red Poppy's playf antics and company until I arrived.
So Poppy! It will be lead walking in the woods for a little while, but I'll do my best to make it worth your while 😊
