2 weeks and 2 days, and she is off the long lead, she now knows where home is but I had to find out the hard way, about 2 Ks away we have an area that is known as the flood plain, we include it her walks as it is a pretty good place for roos and guinea fowl, and she was continually tugging to get to them, as the grass is that bubble grass, thick and high its easy passage for the roos who jump over it and the fowl who fly over it, but it nigh on impossible for a dog to move quick through it two days ago the knot on her long lead came undone and she just disappeared, ------------not a sign of her,------------- not a blade of grass moved and I called and called ----------- but no dog, Any pet owner would know how that feels Turns out she was spotted walking home with the short lead dragging in the dirt, a nieghbour grabbed her and walked with her the rest of the way and handed her over to Judy, Carl said he thought I had a heart attack, -------alls well now
So happy all turned out OK, I have had that gut wrenching feeling when a pet does not respond to the call and you can't find her/him, all sorts of terrible things go through ones mind and then the relief when all turns out good makes one feel weak at the knees.

It sounds as though you really have your hands full. Building up the bus, and training a busy pup. The one thing I've learned about loving pups, they always know where you are even if you can't see them. It doesn't help you when they don't come when called. Good luck with that, and the bus reno. Cheers Chris
