I had to solve the mystery; Chili Dawg was escaping out of his pen and I had to find out how so I set up my Flip Video Camera and went to Target.  Our family theory was that Chili Dawg got excited when he heard the garage door open and jumped out to greet us.  Therefore, I fully expected the camera to run out before I could catch him in the act or even still find him in his pen upon my return.    Oh, was I wrong!  This is what happened when I was gone:

I edited the video to only a few minutes, but he escaped about 30 minutes after I left, right after he finished eating his LickALots.  I was gone for 2 hours, so that means that he was running loose in the house for 90 minutes!  I saw that he got into the closet in my absence; there were hats and scarves strewn all about the living room.  But he didn’t potty in the house and nothing was destroyed.  Nevertheless, now that I have proof of his escape, that’s the end of that.  From now on he will be put in the bathroom when we leave home.

Did you hear his victorious bark when he leap onto the sofa?  Even though I am not happy about his escape, I have to admit this puppy has moxie!
