Last year I installed one of those lever type door handles on my back door.  It 
makes it easier for me to carry puppies outside as I can open the door with my 
knee or elbow.  Well, my shepherd boy has discovered that if he stands up on 
his hind legs and scrapes his paws on the door that he can open it.  He only 
does it if he really wants back inside.  Today, I had put all the dogs out in 
the back yard and was reading my book.  I heard him digging at the door and the 
next thing I saw was one of my Tibbie boys come trotting into the den.  I got 
up and saw Chance and several other Tibbies in the back room.  I herded them 
back out and then realized that while the door was open, my little escape 
artist had gone outside.  I found him outside in the middle of the yard like he 
had been there for a while.
 
Last week one of my little Tibbie girls barked at a big gator that was on the 
grass behind the back fence.  When she barked it went back in the water.  That 
gator is very bold this year.  The wildlife people say that it is acting like 
it has been fed by humans and that is not a good thing!
 
There just never seems to be a dull moment when you have a bunch of dogs!!
