Cb, this is wonderful news, he's a very handsome boy. I'm so happy for you both. And, you escaped the Shih Tzu's .

How is Ryder doing this morning? Still hyper alert, or calming down?

How is Ryder doing this morning? Still hyper alert, or calming down?

First thing this morning I caught him roaching, flat on his back, on the couch.
And then wanting a belly rub. So I guess he's comfortable. lol

But then came the catastrophe. I set him outside on his flexi, he broke a ring on his collar and vanished. New owner, new neighbourhood, and he was determined not to be caught... things were not looking good.
Two hours later, a woman who'd stopped cornered him against some fencing and put the grab on him. Whew!

I'm pretty sure today is some kind of a holiday in Canada. So I'm gonna take the rest of the day off.

How scary! I’m glad he’s back safe at home.

Wow! Hooray for that woman! Hope you’re both lounging on the couch now, recovering from all the excitement.

Yikes! I think escaping happens more with rescues than people realize. Someone I know crossposts a lot of missing dog notices. "New rescue dog jumped thru screen" and "New rescue dog slipped past us thru open door" seem to be pretty common themes.

Oh ya, Cowpony... the most dangerous period for handling a dog... always.

 

[Click-N-Treat]

Glad you got him back. Today is a holiday called, New Dog Bonding Day. Spoil him, and yourself, too.

 

[Spottytoes]

My stomach lurched when I read your post about Ryder taking off! What a relief he is back home with you!

 

[Liz]

Glad he's home safe, CB!

 

[Countryboy]

OK... I trudged out through the snow and retrieved his papers.
He's, Mithril Ryder at Cantope.
UKC registered for some reason.

 

[Skylar]

I’m so glad you got him back, my heart was beating so fast when I read he slipped away from you.

Congratulations on your very special Valentine’s Day poodle Ryder.

Sounds like he needs to be chipped and tagged with your info!

Oh, ya... he's all that, Vita.

I’m SO happy for you! Can’t imagine you without a Spoo. Glad I don’t have to.

Heart in throat moments for you both, and thank goodness for your good samaritan.
