The Night Poopsie Came to Town via LaurieJStone
None of us know when we’ll be tested in life. Some tests are big. Some are small. A test my husband Randy will never forget came on a June night, involving several confused neighbors, two police cruisers, and a Chihuahua named Poopsie.
Quicker than you can say, “Ay! Caramba!,” Poopsie bolted up our driveway, took a left, and disappeared into the mist. The adults stood in shock. Five year-old Patrick started crying. “My doggie hates me!” Hours later, they came back empty-handed and disappointed. My parents left. The kids went to bed, crying.
Two police cars were parked on the side watching this spectacle. Randy pulled up beside them. “That’s my dog,” he said. “I’ll try and herd him home.” At last, Poopsie was corralled. The police officers pulled up behind Randy in our driveway, congratulating him for a job well done. Randy came into the house, by now exhausted. It was past 11:30 p.m. “Maybe we could go back to the pound tomorrow,” I suggested. My husband glared at me. All I kept hearing was Patrick’s words, “My doggie hates me.”
