It seems it hasn't been too awful long ago that the descendants of the 2 families signed a "peace treaty" of sorts. You will probably find that very interesting.<br />Izzy also likes to take off unexpectedly. One way I found to get her to come back to me is to open the door of the motorhome! She loves to go camping!Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05627362326166805915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-38734961758102496042012-07-13T23:11:47.469-05:002012-07-13T23:11:47.469-05:00Too funny how you lured Emma back with her boyfrie...Too funny how you lured Emma back with her boyfriend.

Good thing they could do just that whenever they wanted to since they were on the farm and no traffic near. But they, and I bet Emma, do slow down as they get older. Love the story of what brought her back. Glad George was available even if reluctantly. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to the great blog I know you'll write on the Hatfields and McCoys. We had the Shifflets and Morris feud in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and they are actually still at it.

Will she ever outgrow this? <br />I'm not sure I'd have the patience.<br /><br />One of my nieces has always had one dog or another, and a few years ago they had a rather headstrong fellow they named "Patton" (seems it was a fitting name). I don't recall what bread he was, but they are on a fairly large property, and he had a habit of taking off, and it was a bugger to get him back. <br />They ended up getting some sort of collar (I think it was a "shock" collar). Seems kind of drastic, and maybe not very nice, but he eventually got the message. When they said "come here", he knew they meant it. <br />Broke him of that habit, and eventually the collar was no longer needed. Or at least its use was no longer needed.<br />I can't say I'd recommend such a thing though. To each his own. <br />But hey, you got some exercise!Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-40424583067231080462012-07-12T23:56:47.145-05:002012-07-12T23:56:47.145-05:00It has to be in the name.
