Feel awful

I have a freezer in my garage and last night I went out there to get some food in for today then came back and put some ironing away in the bedroom when the phone rang and I had a long chat with a friend offering sympathy to her because she is going in to hospital. All this time I though Harry was sleeping on the sofa but when I went back in the living room he was nowhere to be found.

Poor little boy had followed me in the garage and I hadn't noticed him and closed the electric door, he had been out there in the dark and cold for over an hour. I felt dreadful, when I opened the door he just shot out then he cuddled up to me on the sofa all evening and kissing me every few minutes. I'm sure he thought he'd been put out there because he had done something wrong (as if).

Did I feel awful!

oh poor thing!!!bad mummy!!! sorry shouldnt chuckle!

You cruel Mum!! Poor Harry!

If it makes you feel any better when I had Scrumps I went down to the shops to get a bottle of wine, I was going to be in and out so took her with and tied her out side. The shops about a 5min walk away.

Anyhoos needless to say I got back home, erm, without a dog! I legged it back down cause I'd left her outside the shop. Who knows what could have happened, I dread to think!

So don't kick yourself, happens to us all! Well happens to me anyway Xx

bad mummy

I surprised he didn't bark.

Poor, poor boy! Just got off the phone to the RSPCA who say they'll be round to see you sometime over the next 10 years as soon as they have nothing better to do!

oooh dear that has happened to me too, we could hear this barking and couldnt tell where it was coming from, looked all over the house and found our dog Charlie locked in the laundry, no one knew how long he'd been in there.

Janey! at the shops! Scrumps must have been freaking out! they get so worried when they think you've left them

my dad did the same thing with my mom's yorkishire terrier... but the dog stayed in the garage all night! the dog was fine, but my mom wasn't when she found out!

when we got our last pup a GSD when he was 5.5 weeks. i was in the recliner chair all reclined and comfy watching tv when there was a nock at the door. i got up to see who it was dealt with it then came back in. went to the kitchen and thought wheres the dog. yeh you guessed it. i finaly found him after following the wimpers LOL poor pup. he never learnt though he was always going under the chair till he got too big

oooh!! I always used to worry about pets getting stuck under the recliner! aha never heard of it actually happening! poor thing!

Awwww, poor Harry.

I'm sure he'll forgive you but does'nt stop us from feeling bad. If he's smart he'll "milk it" for all it's worth

Lol im sure he had a blastt noseying about and looking for mice! Probably thought "Yes! Mums not here to scold me!"

My cat did once! But it was his own stupid fault, his favorite game was to sit under the foot bit and sttack my dads feet constantly so one day it stopped and dad thought the cat was gone but it was still there. Took ages to figure out where the meowing was coming from - was about to cut the back of the sofa open!
