 has walked down my path |
Wednesday, May 10, 2006 i did the usual household chores that i do when i get home. i washed some dishes that were left in the sink, i went out to attend to my rabbits (meggy and motmot), cleaned their cage, fed them and refilled their water. then i attended to my dog, we went out for a walk after she ate dinner, she did her stuff (poo-poo and wee-wee), then i went inside the house to clean up myself.
then as i was about to drink some iced tea, my neighbor calls me and tells me that venice (my dog) was out of her cage. in less than 3 minutes, i called her back and led her into the cage. this thing already happened once, and it happened again. she escaped her cage, and i don't know how she did this. the first time it happened, we were quite afraid that a stray dog could've mated with her. but thanks to god, she did not become pregnant. at that time, i was not sure if i had closed the bolt of her cage. but this time, i was pretty sure that i shut the cage. but she still escaped. has my dog turned into houdini? hehe. i have read somewhere that the golden retriever is the 4th most intelligent dog breed, the 1st being the border collie. i don't know if a golden's intelligence was supposed to go THAT far. but i still haven't seen my dog attempting to open her cage. i doubt that her paws could've done that so how did it happen? my theory is that... venice gets quite excited when there is a cat outside her cage. i think she REALLY wants to play with the cat (golden retrievers is a very friendly and playful breed), and jumps around her cage and leans on the cage. maybe the shaking of the cage caused the handle of the door to rotate (???) and she pushed the cage to get out. but that really doesn't make much sense. i still don't know how, but the fact is, she got out. from now on, i'll always make sure to "lock" the cage with the fastening end (i don't know what it is called) of her leash. i doubt that dog paws could open that. macky
