As I headed to my trails today I noticed that the parking lot was full of cars. This happens a lot on my trails but today those cars looked different than the cars I usually see.
Is that a police car?
At first I thought maybe some police officers were taking a break and decided to go for a hike.
But then I started looking around at all the other vehicles in the parking lot.
I saw Sheriff’s vehicles.
Several of them.
I started getting worried.
I hadn’t done anything wrong so I thought maybe my person had and they were looking for her.
I thought maybe I shouldn’t take her on my trails after all.
My person insisted we go for a walk, but I worried the whole time. What would I do if those police officers and sheriff’s deputies found her and took her away?
I’d be out on my trails alone.
Alone? Hey, that might be fun. I could run free without having to take my person on a leash.
Oh, but wait a minute. Maybe those police officers are trying to trick me into running free so they can pick me up.
I think I’ll head back home now with my person – where it’s safe.
I didn’t do anything officer. Truly I didn’t.

Benny & Lily, it sure was best to be at home with all those officers out looking for someone. But I hope they don’t stay on my trails forever. I sure like hanging out on them.

Oh man, you must have got in some serious mischief! Glad you guys stayed safe.

Mischief? Me? Will and Eko, what are you thinking. I’m always the perfectly innocent dog.

I wonder which truly beligerent critter they were after – I know it wasn’t you, or your person, Bongo! Take your person home quickly so you are both safe.

Susan, we’re hanging out safely at home until they go away.

Hi!
You dont want them to find you alone Bongo! They might take you back to the joint!!! Ginger saw the pictures and started yelling “You’ll Never Take Me Alive Coppers!!!” Sigh….

They’ll never take me back to dog jail. Or Ginger either. Ginger, I bet we could outrun them no problem. And then – onto World Domination!

Bet those officers are just checking for alien life forms pretending to be plants. They’re the good guys, Bongo.

Yikes Karen. I hope they catch all those aliens. I wouldn’t want to be surprised by one.

I’m glad you are safe at home, Bongo! I wonder what sort of mischief brought all those police to your trails??

Remy, maybe I should get my Detective Dog hat on and investigate.

Maye the police needed you to be one of those K-9 police helper dogs. You could chase criminals and ride in the car all day. I love the car.

I have thought about this overnight and I have concluded that they were indeed searching for you. Not because you had done anything wrong…oh no! They had heard about Detective Bongodog and were seeking his help to solve the crime of the century.
But as you went home instead, they gave up the search and had to rely on themselves…see your fame as Detective has spread
lots of love Patrecia….ps. you don’t want to come to Bulgaria at the moment it is very hot and not suitable for a Bongo…..xxxxxx
Bongo

Patrecia, maybe I should stop by the police station and offer my services.
It’s starting to get hot here too. Not too bad yet, but it’s really windy today.

Cameron, maybe they were looking for you. You weren’t hanging out on my trails were you? I’ll tell them you weren’t so they start looking somewhere else.

I believe you doing nothing wrong, Bongo! They might be secret security guards for you who is now famous not only in US but also in many countries! You’re quite celebrity! 🙂

April 30, 2013 at 2:55 pm
Thanks Kevin. I never thought that they might be out there to protect me. How cool is that?

I think you could have proven the policemen that their accusation was groundless because you always kept your person on the leash.
Bongo
April 30, 2013 at 3:03 pm
Kolytyi, I think you’re right. Since I always have my person on a leash I’m her alibi. That is, until she starts getting into mischief with me.

Of course you didn’t do anything Bongo. Make sure you stay with your person and don’t go out by yourself 🙂

Little Binky, my person is keeping an even closer eye on me now. I lost my ID tag. My younger person made me a new one, but he won’t be up with it until this weekend.

Maybe they came to get those nasty litter bugs 😉

Misty Shores, I think you just gave me another clue. Where that cactus was demolished is right near where the litter bugs hang out.

oh-oh, glad you got home. Do you think there’s bandits in your hills? At least your person has you for protection.

Lola and Diane, my person is safe for sure with me. She says it was actually a search and rescue operation.

Geez, why didn’t they just tell you that & you could have wrapped things up in a few minutes!
