Yesterday Mommy saw a little doggie wandering the street down the block. She walked towards it, but kept a distance cause she didn't want him to get spooked or run away.
She started talking to him in a high pitched squeaky type of voice saying... "Doggie, you have to go back home."
The doggie kept tilting his head and staring at Mommy as she was talking.
Mommy said "out loud" , "Did someone lose a dog"... butt no one heard her. No one was out on the street, everyone was probably inside with the air conditioners running. (Mommy is having some acid problems in her throat, so she has been losing her voice lately. So, she said it as loud as she could, but no one heard her.)
So, she kept doing the high pitched squeaky type of voice talking to the doggie to stall him from getting lost.
Finally after a few minutes she heard a voice in the neighborhood saying, "Peppy where are you?"
Mommy was able to speak loud enough to say... "There is a doggie over here."
The neighbor came out and called Peppy's name, and Peppy went back to his mom.
Peppy had wandered off half way down the street from his house.
Mommy is glad to have helped Peppy make it back home.

We have a question fur bloggers.... since everyone reads all sorts of blogs, maybe this topic came up before...
Mommy is wondering if she should carry a whistle with her because sometimes she can't talk loud with her acid problems.
Do you think a stranger doggie would get spooked if she blew a whistle?
Mommy was able to keep Peppy's attention long enough with her attempt at a high pitched squeaky voice, so maybe Peppy wouldn't have minded if Mommy blew a high pitched whistle?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
