My mom’s chihuahua

Was scream-barking her head off outside, clearly in distress. I walked out to see what was wrong, thinking she got hurt.

No. The gate was left open. Someone across the street is outside in her yard, and the. Gate. Was. Left. Open.

We’re all in danger.

🙄
So I closed it. Good grief. Now she can be quiet and do her business, and get back inside.
