Each member of The Herd has at least three crates – in the bedroom, out on the deck, and in the RV. Sometimes, we have closed doors (something about the Hu-dad can be more efficient if we are not under foot, whatever that means), but normally our crate doors are wide open.
Frankie enjoying his outdoor room.
Yesterday, we were all outside. It was gloriously cold for this time of year and we were loving it. Hu-dad happened to glance outside and was surprised to see Frankie’s door closed.
Now, how was that door closed?
Hu-dad checked and discovered the crate was not latched, just the door pushed closed. He opened the door and wondered how it happened. A few seconds later, the answer appeared.
Apparently, Frankie was keeping a pest away.

The dog didn’t eat my homework, but exploding oatmeal and broken water lines sure interfered with my novel writing this week.

Mud Freckles
Lots of snow, lots of rain, muddy roads, four-wheel drive, and an open jeep window. This is when a dog should not hold their head out of the window, as demonstrated by Natasha and Kodiak as they show off their Mud Freckles.
Visit Millerton, a fictional small town near Asheville NC, via D.K. Wall's novels. Ordinary people. Extraordinary events.
Mom sez: Knew right from the start that Frankie was an intelligent feller!
Maybe you need a “Do Not Disturb” sign and blinds to close as well! We well understand the sometime need to be pest-free.
18 crates? Good grief! And I thought 5 cats took up a lot of room!
Well, 19 actually. We are high maintenance.
Oh my God. That is just too funny. Drastic times for peace and t calls for drastic measures. You just gotta love animals and their thinking. Have a great weekend. Hugs and kisses to the herd.
