My wife's Grandfather passed away early Sunday morning, so we left town to travel to the funeral. Meanwhile Ozzy and his canine cohorts were left in the care of our local dog kennel. Since the establishment charges per cage, and we have four little goofballs, we felt it would be advantageous to place them in pairs, thus paying for two instead of four. First, we felt they would keep each other company during our absence, and it would be a bit cheaper. Now don't any of you readers judge me, since I know perfectly well you have done similar things while staying at motels.
Well, the plan seemed work out fine until I received a phone call from Ozzy. He was not aware of the reason for our leaving. All he knew was they were herded into a car and hauled to the Big House. Then he gets locked in a cage without being read his rights and told what he was charged with. It took him nearly two hours to convince one of the kennel staff to allow him his "phone call".
After several attempts I was sucessful calming Ozzy down, and explained the situation. He was less sympathetic with our situation, and more irritated at his. We had him placed in the same cage with Spazz since we thought it was a better pairing. Ozzy says Spazz stinks, needs a tooth brush, and snores like a freight train. I told Ozzy we would be home soon, and until then he should try to deal with it. He promised he would, and the phone call ended.
Shortly after 10 PM the Georgia State News Agency said in a television news broadcast that there was a jail break in McDuffie County, Georgia. The four inmates were last seen headed toward Washington, GA. They are considered armed and extremely dangerous.
