When I let the dog out this morning he stood staring at the fence barking energetically. This isn’t completely abnormal for him, so I called him in and paid no attention to what I assumed was a doggy apparition that had caught his attention.
After a repeat performance in the late afternoon, my wife called me with: “there’s an animal stuck in the fence”.
Sure enough, this fellow had tried to squeeze himself through one of the chain links and, like most of us, he underestimated his girth and got stuck. We did eventually manage to extricate him from his predicament:
Incidentally, ground hogs bite quite hard even when you are trying to do them a favour.
Are you sure this wasn’t Mr. Mole, who wandered from a nearby meadow, intent on a death defying ride in your new red Motorcar, or perhaps to feast at your hospitable table on your fine Brie, and Italian Chianti, with a pleasant evening of intelligent conversation and debate, on the blessing of inter-species relationships?
Did he bite ya for leaving him the fence all day?
Kind of a cute li’l fellar 🙂
You’re a good man!

You should, by now, be accustomed to those who bite the hand that frees them.
