Jail break

Not mine but Ah Boy and Ah Girl, the two dogs from the ground-floor flat across the field. They had visitors who left the gate open, their owner later explained. There I was, taking down Rupert for a much-needed pee and there were Ah Boy and Ah Girl dashing about to scattering, screaming kids, which only made the dogs skitter some more and the kids scream even more, with the owner in hot pursuit with leashes.

You know what they say about using a thief to catch a thief. Same principle. Use a dog to catch two dogs. All I had to do was stand still with Rupert. All he did as bait was wag his tail at the two dogs and they came running up to him. And then I just grabbed their collars until the owner panted up with the leashes.


A waggly tail is irresistible. To kids, grown-ups and other dogs.

Oh, the tails here are wagging at attention because food is involved.
