Amber
Amber has been right with me since I came home.
I let her out for the second time this morning, along with our sweet, elderly Molly.
Molly
Molly barked at the door a short time after, wanting to come in. No Amber, but that isn’t unusual.
Half an hour later, I went to each door to call for her. Usually she comes in just a second. No Amber.
Some time later, I went out, calling. I walked out to the garden, then across the yard and over to the greenhouse, calling in all directions. No Amber.
I finally told my husband I was worried and was going to take the truck and look for her. He came with me and we drove all around, calling. No Amber.
We needed to leave for Lunch Bunch, so we left. We talked about the fact that Amber was probably stolen. She is very friendly and LOVES to ride in a car. She regularly tries to get in the UPS guy’s truck. My heart was in my throat. She has a collar with her name on it and our phone number. She also has a tag with the same information. She has a chip imbedded. I planned to call the vet when we got home to ask them to be on the lookout.
We had a good Lunch Bunch. One of the waitresses was having a birthday. I took her an “I Need a Vacation!” frame with glass on both sides, forming a bank for donations. She got a kick out of that – particularly when I took a dollar and left the first donation. :0) I encouraged her to put it on the counter at the restaurant…
We drove up the driveway when we got home and THERE WAS AMBER!
Neither Molly nor Amber can tell us where she was, but that doesn’t matter now. I checked her over and she seems to be fine.
I’M fine now, too. Whew!
