Oh Pam, isn't that the most frightening, sickening feeling??? Thank goodness both Ripley and Bella are ok! I'm so familiar with that scary scenario! Workers are always coming by without my knowing it, climbing over my fence to do some work, leaving my gates unlocked or not shutting them completely. I'll come home thinking all is well, let the dogs out, not realizing that the wind has blown one of the gates open Twice the girls escaped and I was frantic. Thankfully they ventured down the road behind my house into the woods. But like you, it took hours before I stopped shaking! Give the pups a hug for me! And one for you, too!
