It's a good thing...

... that my dog isn't all that creative.

We had a lawn service come through yesterday morning to treat our. I had to open the gate to let them into the backyard.

Apparently, I forgot to CLOSE the gate afterwards.

So for the last 36 hours, Morgan has been let outside to a yard with a wide open gate. Free access to the neighborhood. Not a thing to stop him.

And yet, he stayed in his yard. Good boy, Morgan!

Dogs only escape when they think they've outsmart you. By leaving the gate wide open, he assumed it was too easy, and therefor it was what YOU WANTED HIM TO DO.

Really, he was just rebelling by not going through the open gate!

Haha, no! I'm sure Morgan did it because he's a good boy, haha. Phew, it must be such a relief to know what could have happened didn't.
