Kids new pet...

Daddy - can we keep it?

Our poor dog was going nuts in the corner of the yard for two days and I could not figure out why she kept going to the same spot and barking. I finally noticed this small box turtle on the outside of the fence behind the evergreen bush, so I pulled it out and took it down to the pond in our sub-division to let it go. The kids wanted to keep it as a pet, but what are you going to do with a turtle, and it drove the dog absolutely crazy already. It was the fastest turtle I have ever seen, every time I put it down - it just took off faster than you could believe; I guess we could have kept it for the next turtle races that came to the neighborhood...?

Bye, Bye Speedy!
