Her Little Life

Coco's little life just flashed before my eyes! After our walk this morning, I had several friends over for coffee to celebrate Gaëlle's birthday.

While we were chatting and munching on snacks, Coco became agitated and acted as if she wanted to be let outside. So, I let her out. Next thing we know, she is barking and running around the deck like a crazy dog! This is unusual for her as she rarely barks, so we all got up to look out the window. We saw a huge German shepherd chasing Coco and baring his teeth! He chased her around and around the yard and deck. I didn't know what to do so I called her, opened the door a crack and thankfully, she was faster than the big dog and I could get her inside and slam the door on his face! Wow! My poor puppy was shaking like a leaf and scared to death. We waited another 30 minutes before the women were ready to leave. We looked outside carefully to see if the big dog was gone. He appeared to be, so two of the women walked to their cars. Next thing you know, the dog was chasing them as they ran to dive into their cars! I promptly called animal control and they came out and caught the dog. Poor Coco is now not so eager to go outside. Good thing that she can run fast!
Josh comes home tonight!!! We are all just counting down the minutes!
