Odyssey, d'oh!
Love a story that ends well!
My brother's dog ran away and was lost for months. They finally saw him running around a field about 5 miles from their home. He was pretty beat up, but okay. This was in Dallas, and he had to cross major streets to get where he was. I don't know how the dog survived.
Still some critters left, though.
Reunited
Peaches and Herb
I was a fool to ever leave your side
Me minus you is such a lonely ride
The breakup we had has made me
Lonesome and sad
I realize I love you
'Cause I want you bad, hey, hey
I spent the ev'ning with the radio
Regret the moment that I let you go
Our quarrel was such a way
Of learnin' so much
I know now that I love you
'Cause I need your touch, hey, hey
Chorus:
Reunited and it feels so good
Reunited 'cause we understood
There's one perfect fit
And, sugar, this one is it
We both are so excited
'Cause we're reunited, hey, hey
Brief instrumental interlude
I sat here starin' at the same old wall
Came back to life
Just when I got your call
I wished I could climb
Right through the telephone line
And give you what you want
So you will still be mine, hey,
Hey
I can't go cheatin', honey, I can't play
I found it very hard to stay away
As we reminisce on precious moments like this
I'm glad we're back together
'Cause I missed your kiss,
Lover, lover, this is solid love
And you're exactly what I'm dreamin' of
All through the day
And all through the night
I'll give you all the love
I have with all my might, hey, hey
Considering that this is Norfolk, this is a very fortunate pooch.
Had PETA in Norfolk picked him up, he'd have been euthanized.
The PETA shelter has an 85% kill rate.
What are your dogs doing running around off leash?
Leash? That's funny. I have a leash somewhere, for visits to town. Even then, my dog knows where to go for treats, sans leash in town.
We live in the boonies, with about 100 acres of woods in our neighborhood. There are no fences. There are no leashes. It's critter Heaven, just the way we like it. Stories of city living give me the cold sweats.
And the lost critters I was referring to were cats, not dogs.
