This is just a story, I don't have time for pics, sorry. ;) It may not be that interesting unless you heard it in person either, plus I'm horrible at writing. :o
My mom came home from work today an hour or so before I got home. She let the dogs outside to go potty. A little while later she let them back inside. She was distracted walking around the house while talking on the phone. When she got off the phone, she noticed that Reggie and Sydney were around, but she couldn't find Nebo. So she looked all over the house (our house is medium sized, but its 4 levels so there's a lot of rooms/places he could be) and couldn't find him anywhere. So she went outside and looked all over the yard, even under the deck...no Nebo.
She came back in the house and checked the doors; they were all shut, but not locked. Could one of the doors have not been closed all the way? She was pretty panicked at this point, so she got in the car and drove around the block a few times looking and calling for him, worried that he may have gotten through the front door. And as most huskies, he'd be off running to his hearts content if he got out. She couldn't find him, so she came back to check the house again. Then she tried ringing the doorbell (that always make the dogs come running!) with no sign of him....she was yelling "Cheese! and Treats!" hoping maybe he'd hear that, she even tried turning on the can opener which always gets his attention...no Nebo.
She said she was pretty much shaking, praying, and in tears at this point, she got in the car and drove around again looking for him. With no sign of him again, she came back home, about to call me at work and tell me the bad news. She decided to take one last check around the house first. She looked in the one room she hadn't previously checked, the unfinished bathroom. She didn't check it before because nobody goes in there and the door is always closed. But guess who was inside? NEBO! He was just standing there by the door wondering what took her so long to let him out! :p Apparently she had walked in there while talking on the phone, he had followed her without her noticing (he's surprisingly sneaky for a 60 lb dog ;) ) and she had shut the door when she left.
Phew! I'm just glad he was not really lost; I couldn’t live without my Nebo boy! I'm happy to know my mom cares about him that much too. :) I do enjoy how quiet he is, and I complain about how much Reggie and Sydney bark....but sheesh, that would have been a good time to make a little noise Nebo!
