The Dog Got Out! <le> <al> <el> <il>

The sun is up. It is time to start the day. The dog looks out of the window. What is he going to do when his mum goes to work?

He could stay in his kennel all day, but that sounds kind of boring. He will wait until his mum is gone. Then he will be able to get up to some fun.

When her car is gone, he jumps up and propels himself over the fence. He is going to see if there is any fun to be had in the next yard over.

Yes! Two of his pals are in the yard. They often play when they are at the dog park or on walks. The three of them run around the yard. They bow down and wag their tails.

Their dad comes out to check on them. The dog propels himself into the next yard.

He has gone still. That means that he has spotted something. He lifts an ear. What can he hear?

Over the fence and onto the grass. He will find his next bit of fun for the day. He leaps over the flowers.

It is the lady that lives a few doors down. He has met her and her tiny, yellow dog before. The lady likes it when he sings. He revels in the chance to show off.

Oh! He heard the sound of his mum's car coming down the street! He had better get back home before she sees that he is gone.

Mum getting home is the best time of the day. She always gives him a pat and plays with him. Then they have dinner.

She has a new rope toy for him! They play tug of war with the new toy until he starts to get tired. Then they eat their dinner and it is time for bed.

What a day he has had! Time to sleep. He curls up on the couch. I wonder what he is going to get up to when the sun is up again?
