Mystery

We have had a tricycle to mysteriously appear in our backyard. I was at home the whole day and never heard anything. We have a gate in the front and the back with locks. I did not hear the dogs bark either. Nothing happens without "Abby" hearing it and barking. She is afraid of her shadow. We have two mini dachshunds that stay in the backyard. I got a little upset to think that somehow a bike was placed in my backyard by someone and I never heard anything. My husband knew that I was getting upset about it so he went over and asked the neighbors if they heard anything. Well......our neighbors had thrown the trike out for garbage pick up. They had no idea how it got from there to our back yard. They are good neighbors and we all help to watch out for each other. This is a mystery that may never be solved. This is "Abby". She belongs to my daughter. She is staying with us now and barks at every noise she hears. We also have a black and tan one just like her. His name is "Taz". He is old and can not hear very good now. As you can see from this picture, our backyard is completely surrounded by a privacy fence. This is the corner of our yard and our neighbors fence ties in with ours. I have enjoyed watching the birds feed on our feeders this year. That is until Abby came along. She chases them away every time she sees them.

That's a strange mystery. I know that Abby didn't jump that fence and haul that bike in there!

PS She is darling, and I wish I could snuggle her neck.

Magic bike Dear...maybe it didn 't want to land up in the garbage truck, so it sneaked into your well kept yard with alert dogs. Smiles.

I confess, it was me.
Just kidding of course. Do you think the garbage men might have thrown it over your fence thinking it was set out by mistake. It's strange you didn't hear anything though. Obviously I'm no help at all. This would drive me crazy!

This is my thoughts: The dogs bark when they hear kids walking down the street. Maybe they picked it up and through it to scare the dogs. Also, I found out that the neighbors had gotten onto some young guys for cutting through their yard at the side of their house. It could have made them mad and they thought that they were throwing it in her yard. Oh well....who knows.
