Ludo Escaped!

Yesterday I came back from a walk and pushed the front door shut behind me before unloading my bags etc. I didn't think any more of it until half an hour later when Matt said, "Where's Ludo?"

Then we realised the front door was open. I must have not closed it properly. Luckily I had been out in the porch 5 minutes earlier and it wasn't open then, so Ludo couldn't have been gone for long.

Matt dashed outside, shouting, "Ludo! Ludo!" I followed him, clutching a handful of raw chicken that I was preparing for dinner. Isabel raced out after us in her socks.

Thankfully, Ludo was not even 100 yards away, standing on one of our neighbour's lawns, sniffing around. She came trotting over happily and gobbled down the chicken, then let us lead her back into the house by her collar.

I thought I was going to have a heart attack. Let's just say I am going to be MUCH more careful about closing the front door behind me in future!
