It had to happen eventually.

When I went to get the girls in after their 7 AM 'let-us-out-Mam', I found all four dogs playing with a new friend. A new, male, UNNEUTERED friend, who had apparently slipped into the yard through a gap just large enough in the driveway gate.
Thankfully, nobody had started much in the way of romance - I think they were all just delighted with a new playmante - and they actually came inside when I called them, except for Annie (the brat). Two+ hours later, I went outside, chased him all around the house and blocked the gate after he exited, leaving him forlorn outside the chain-link.
[rubs temples] At least it's not a harem.

The Suitor (1) At least he's, erm, in scale. |
The Suitor (2) It's a long, long, lonely driveway.... |

Annie's only 5 months-ish, so I've got a wee bit of wiggle room there.

In the meantime, did you at least take Annie in? If she turns up in heat on the rescheduled date, you are going to feel silly. It could happen.

Considering his lead time, yeah, I should've done it already but things get very distracting at the vet's office (look! French bulldog puppies!). I do need to get them tested for er.. erlich... some tick-borne disease.

Par'n me, just being silly :-p
