I guess the weekend is over

I never bothered with any fireworks, either public or private. Indiana is very lax about controlling fireworks, so you can do a lot of damage locally with impunity. Unfortunately it upsets the animals so I avoid setting off any firecrackers or bottle rockets and such.
I found out last night my next door neighbor's dog has run away. She is an abuse victim, so she is very skittish at best. I took a stroll around the neighborhood at 2:00 AM and actually found a scared dog hiding under a car - not my next door neighbor's dog though.

Poor girl. I hope she comes home. We met our neighbor's dog for the first time yesterday. I have a feeling she might have been abused because she kept barking at my dad and brother. She came willingly to me but would NOT come near them.

She won't come to anybody. The firecrackers spooked her big time. There are a million places for a dog to hide in my neighborhood, so I hope she is hiding. Unfortunately, the firecrackers go on for the rest of the week. All it takes is one random bang and she's off.

They go on because people just like to blow things up.

Poor pooches....it is karma for you to find the other dog....what happened to her? New pooch for you? What would Nez say? I finally entered another post in The Memory of Water...it is somewhat unlike the others... Oh, two groundhogs walked into a bar.... Deb
