Day Two Hundred Six

Thank to Balin & our neighbor's dog, we now have a multi-colored fence.

Balin & our neighbors dog like to sniff, whine & pee on each other through this one spot in the fence that separates our yards.  Well, one afternoon while I'm sleeping (just so happened to be the afternoon I came home from work sick) my doorbell rings & I see it's my neighbor.  So I open the door & the conversation goes like this:

Neighbor: "Did you know your dog got out & is on my back porch?"
Me: "Uh...no.  Oh no, I'm sorry."
N:  "It's ok. He doesn't have a leash on, but will he come if you call him?"
Me: Still not awake & my head is pounding, "Um, yes....let me get my...uh...shoes on..."

So, I get my flip flops on, walk out in the blinding sun, around the house & to their backyard & call Balin.  He comes running over without a care in the world & I'm still not awake enough to talk in a disciplining tone to him when I see how he got through the fence.  The spot where he & the neighbors dog pee on each other is totally rotten & he slipped through there.  Gross.  So we're talking about fixing the fence & just blocking it for now when my neighbors daughter come out & makes this statement while giggling:

"Mom, he left a HUGE dump on our back porch!"

That's my classy dog.
