Maple, the siren

Maple is in heat. I have a two-acre fenced yard. The neighbors down the road have a male yellow lab named Winchester. They do not have a fenced yard. Winchester has been coming down to run around the outside of our fence looking for a way in.

Aargh!  What is it about living in the country that causes people to lose all common sense when it comes to building a fence if they have a dog?  Even if they don't care about their dog making little Winchesters, do they think dogs don't get hit by cars in the country?  

It's windy, temp is the 20s.  Before I let Maple go outside after dinner, she has to have her lighted collar on, so I (the person with the fenced yard) can follow her around in my pajamas and robe to make sure that there is no four-footed labbie Romeo lurking.
