I'm still in one piece!
I believe I made mention of the fact that my neighbor threatened to call the pound on us the next time Lilly got out, but I guess what he really meant was he was going to call the pound anyway. We had a nice visit from Animal Services representative who was very friendly, but had to give us a warning despite everything. She wasn't allowed to divulge the identity of the complainant, so I guess it really isn't fair of me to assume that it's the only person that I know of to ever complain about our dog and to go straight to his lawyer whenever I blow my nose on toilet paper instead of Kleenex.
Whatever! The rep gave Rylee some colouring books and had to lecture us about the bylaws stating that all dogs must be on leash off their property. I agree! Last thing I want is for Lilly to get hit by a car. Part of the complaint was that Lilly has been seen barking at cars. Well, this mystery person who has seen my dog bark at cars must spend a heck of lot more time with Lilly than I do because I have never witnessed this phenomenon. If you can get Lilly to bark at a car, truck or any other vehicle barreling down the road then I'd like to add that to the ever increasing list of tricks that she knows such as sit, lie down, roll over and play dead. Barking at cars would be funny, but she doesn't do that. Not that I've seen. I wonder where liars come from.
As promised, here are some pictures of the kids at Canada Olympic Park:
That last picture once again shows Rylee's rebellious nature. Or it could be her lack of control. She went beyond the barrier tape into the cross-country ski area, and at one point a group of 20 or 30 skiers went zooming passed Rylee on all sides. I was actually pretty scared for her safety, but there would have been no way to reach her in time. I tried which is why there's no picture of the event. Thankfully, every single one of them missed her. Man, I wish I would have gotten that as a movie file. Stupid concern over daughter's welfare....
