Considering Renaming Colin....

[friedgreentomato]

To schultz!!!

I have been off sick for the last month so he has been used to me being at home with him - started back parttime this week and so far he has escaped twice!!

We have found Tom and Dick and are just awaiting for the discovery of Harry - in the meantime he is in the cooler along with a baseball mit and a ball!!

Lol

I didn't understand any of that! LOL

Shultz?

Tom, Dick and Harry?

Cooler?

Why's he got a baseball bat and mitt?

[Tilly2]

Does he get out whilst you are away at work?

Boo - its a character out of the great escape - Tom, dick and harry were the tunnels that allied soldiers dug to try and escape from a camp.

Yes Tilly he is sitting on the drive or verandah when I get home!

Could you use a cage when at work, some dogs take to them really well and feel secure in them?

[friedgreentomato]

Pyssb I would never cage Colin - for a start he is a lab so the cage would have to be huge, he will just have to stay in the house, I am doing a phased return so he will get used again to being left alone for longer again.

My first dog was an escape fiend. We had a huge fence around the garden and he still got out. He used to go to the local primary school at break times to play with the kids. He used to use his weight to help him over the fence - I think!

Ahhh with you, sorry FGT, can you believe i've never seen the film?

[friedgreentomato]

He found a gap in an 8ft wall that was hidden behind a 50 year old fushia bush and another bush and then on the 2nd day he dug a large tunnel under another fence!

But Boo its a classic

[Tilly2]

Why don't you leave him in the house, fgt?

[friedgreentomato]

Because he would be confined to 2 small rooms whereas if he was outside he would have 3 gardens to roam and play in!!
