This morning we had a surprise visit from a very large and amiable GSD whom we have never seen before, luckily he had Council Tags so I was able to obtain the owners phone number and leave a message.
Abby (full of joy and sparkling eyes) has never had such intense exercise - non-stop mad frapping round the back yard with GSD in hot pursuit. She would then fox him by tearing into the house through her doggie door, and while he was still bending down hopefully peering through it, she would erupt out of the door at the other end of the patio and flash past him before he had time to turn to turn. Then it was on again until one of them would pause for a drink.
They tried frapping through the house, but he was so big and they were going so fast, he could not apply the brakes and turn quickly enough in the confined space, to match her figures of eight.
Fortunately the horrified owner soon responded and came to pick him up.
Dog had jumped a seven foot fence while owner was out for half an hour. (A Completely Enclosed Run is now on the Agenda).
Dog is usually not friendly towards dogs he does not know - owner quite amazed. (It's that Corgi Charm).
Dog should have been very tired as he had just finished a long Night Shift in his working role as a Guard Dog !!!! +HUH+
Very Silly Me did not think of the camera until the owner was walking up the front path, but this pic will give a little insight as to just how hilarious the frapping session was to watch.
There is now a Very Sound Asleep Corgi here, and as we all know - A Tired Corgi is a Good Corgi.
