Next door have a large dog, which is apparently crossed with a bear, called Butch. He is elderly (seventeen!), huge, placid and has an eye for the ladies. Many local lady dogs are receptive to his advances and he does not miss an opportunity. He is also lovely with children. I wouldn't leave a child alone with a dog, but little bear has had his face washed plenty of times by Butch, who has happily tolerated little bear stroking him and various family toddlers crawling all over him. I love hearing his bark at the postman - to ensure he gets a cuddle!
He has been missing for a fortnight.
Their tom cat (indolent and occasionally terrorised by evil cat) has also gone missing. I am concerned that there is poison down with multiplying rats.
It is so hard, wondering what has happened.
