Survivor!

As most of you who read our blog may know Einstein ran away this weekend while staying with my dad. Seth and I were in Eager for the Slade Family Reunion when all of this happened.

Einstein has been sneeking out of my back yard for a while now. He found somewhere that he could dig under the fence and get into our neighbor's yard then get out. He's been awful curious and adventurous. When Seth and I left for Eager we took both dogs (Charlie and Enistein) to my dad's house to stay for the weekend. My dad was even contemplating bringing both dogs up to big lake for the weekend with him. Needless to say his plans got cancelled. Einstein dug out under my dad's back fence around eight thirty and got out into the desert. My dad and little brother Taylor chased him from eight thirty until about two thirty that night! They literally chased him for that long. He was in sight they could just never catch him. My dad even said that he was driving his truck following Einstein going about twenty-five miles per hour and Einstein was still getting away from him! He's FAST!!!!! They knocked on people's doors looking for him. A family that lives down the street from him said that he ran in their front door jumped on their couch then left again! After they couldn't catch him the night before they woke up the next morning and looked for him again. By twelve they decided to give up and put up flyers and just hope someone would call. Well they were putting up a flyer south of town when they saw him run across Discovery Park Rd. By Mount Graham High School and that cemetary. They ran into Dwayne Larkey who was walking his dog Molly. After getting a good laugh out of my dad and Taylor chasing Einstein through the state yard that's out there he sent his dog to round up Einstein. She cornered him long enough for Taylor to go pick him up. (My dad wouldn't do it because he was so mad) Well they got him home and sent him over to the neighbor's house that has little dogs and a block fence that goes into the ground so he couldn't get out again. We got him home and he has been sleeping ever since. He is covered in stickers and needs to go to the groomer to get them taken out. I'm sure my little guy had a rough weekend. I think my dad and Taylor had a tougher weekend. I'm not sure I even would have looked so long for him. They were troopers. We took them out for dinner when we got back as a thank you.

We're so happy to have Both of our dogs home with us! (Charlie was so good. She stayed home and didn't chew up anything!)
