DAY 1 :[glow=red,2,300]Lexie :[/glow]'What did I do? Mother has just dumped me here. Conditions are dreadful. We're in a cell. We only get let out 3 times a day. Am working on an escape plan.[glow=red,2,300]Buster : [/glow]'Oooh this is fun! All these doggy smells ... oooh!  DAY 1 :[glow=red,2,300]Lexie : [/glow] 'Worse. They don't allow us any reading matter and I'm banged up with this imbecile. I am THIS CLOSE to SMACKING him.' [glow=red,2,300]Buster [/glow]: 'Lex, Lex, isn't this GREAT?? Lex..?  [glow=red,2,300]Lexie[/glow] 'Ha. Fools! They think we're sitting nicely, but I'm casing the perimeter for my escape route. I've thrown a note over the fence, perhaps mother will find it ...' [glow=red,2,300]Buster :[/glow] 'Is it nearly dinner time?'  |

AAWWWWWWWW poor doggies. Lexie will make a great escape, I can tell  Buster looks like he'll just go along with everything. Good boy. ;D In the second picture they sure look like different breeds, like on is a cross with a GS. Tell me again why that is, I know you explained it once but I can't remember. |

LOL! I know. Everyone calls her 'Lassie'. And most people think she's a Collie - or Collie/GSD mix. She's not, but he's a more 'classic' GSD. I don't mind - she's so beautiful!But just to assert her pedigree - here's her sire. Zarco Zeus the Warrior. NOW who's the collie!!  |

Brooks- lex is just a long haired shepherd we don't see a lot of them here in the US (is frowned upon by our US judges) but is more common in other places. I love the look!! It remeinds me more of the belgian tervurens in a lot of ways.

That's right, Dawn - she's a long-haired, and they have those finer features. So she is ALWAYS being mistaken for Lassie...
She doesn't mind!

Well I think they are both beauties Bara. ;D
Okay I feel a story coming on.
It was the first of November and the pups were getting restless. Lexie turns to Buster and says" Let's go for a stroll little brother, we've learned all we need to here and I miss mum." and of course buster is so busy sniffing around to disagree that Lexie just grabs his collar and tugs. so off they go.......

DAY 2 :
LEX :
We have built a wireless from scraps of copper and metal we have picked up around the grounds of our prison block. The Child was quite useful, though I have to stop him from tipping off the guards. I have hidden it under our (cough) .. We've received an incoming message from Auntie Terrie and our Auntie Brooks in California .. If my Morse code serves me well, they are coming to rescue us ..
BUSTER :
Auntie Terrie! Auntie Brooks! It's ME, BOO!

DAY 3 :
LEX :
We can receive, but we can't send. How frustrating. The boxer in the next cell has passed on a message from the Jack Russell several cells down... he has been working on a tunnel. He's using his water bowl to break through the concrete. We'll try to join tunnels... Our captors continue to humiliate us, but we pretend to sit, stay and fetch. Best to keep them unsuspecting.
BUSTER :
Oooh, Lex! Are we digging?? I LOVE digging!

and so the digging started....very carefully and slowly did Buster dig and then Lexie beig the smart little girl tht she is devised a way to smooth the excess dirt so it looked like it was always there. Very clever in her thinking. It was easy to fool the guards as they only made rounds twice a day. they were very easy to figure out, or so the pups thought.........

As Gunther the night watchman made his rounds on a dark, damp night, he made the discovery of the almost invisible path to freedom. He chuckled to himself softly as he thought of all the new inmates that had tried to rebel. He left the newly dug hole alone as not to crush the spirits of a couple of lively pups. He thought about his own imprisonment, and how things might have been different if his hope was still intact.

LEX :
There's a new guard - Gunther. I don't trust him. There's something strange about him, almost as though he has been THIS side of the prison bars. Made the child come and sit on the tunnel entrance. Don't think Gunther spotted it. The Weimeraner from Cell Block H has managed to cobble together some valves for the radio. He 'pawed' them to me during exercise period. I have hopes that we can get the wireless working and get help ....
BUSTER :
Gunther! Yoo-hoo, Gunther! It's ME, BOO! Do you want to play?

Lex watches as two new dogs join the group to be trained, Two Corgi's, they introduce themselves as Bear and Molly and both have American accents. Lexie understands, they are here to aid them in the breakout. Molly whispers as she walks by, " we got here as soon as we could. " Auntie Brooks meantime goes to find Bara, but where could she be?

LEXIE : Great excitement today. The GIs are here! We have two American operatives who have infiltrated the compound. Disguised as Corgis and Codenamed 'Molly' and 'Bear', they're billeted next to us. Haven't had much chance to speak with them, but we're devising a tapping code through the wall... Seems I may have been wrong about Gunther, he may be a plant to aid our escape plan. We shall see ... BUSTER : Hiya Molly! Hello, Bear - wanna PLAY?  |

Gunther was a big man, weathered skin made him look old beyond his years. He leaned back in his chair, closing the folders after reading the history of his new charges. Stretching he rose from his office desk, and walked to the kennel. The noisy kennel was quiet this evening, as he made his way down the corridor. He stopped at the kennel of the 2 corgis from America. He softly whispered a few words in German to the pair, and continued on. Grabbing 2 leads from the front of 2 lovely Shepard's kennel he quickly slipped them over their awaiting heads. There was hesitation from one of the shepards, but for some reasoned decided to follow the big man. As they walked Gunther talked to the dogs, but mainly to himself. He talked of his days in the German prison camps, and how he learned to take the orders that were given. How his once free spirit had been broken. The 2 shepards listened intently to the big man.
