Sparkles.

Back at Alexandra's house today.

The forecast was for lots of rain, later in the morning.  So the girls asked if we could go for a walk early.

So off we went, the girls with their doll's prams me with the dog.

We had only gone a little way, when we were suddenly ambushed by a large dog.  It came flying across the road and started to bark at Sparkles.

I shouted at it to 'Go Away', and it backed off.  Then it came back again, so I shouted again.

I thought about gong back home, but whichever way we went the dog followed.

By now Mia was getting really upset.  And I was getting worried as the dog was starting to bare it's teeth.

I was surprised that no one came out to see what was going on, as I was shouting and the girls were now starting to get scared, and screaming.

It came for us again, but luckily a car was coming along the road, and the dog stopped as it was going to get hit.

We made our escape, and went to the park.

We returned some time later as it had started to rain.  I thought by now either the dog, had been taken in or gone off somewhere.

But as we turned into our road, it shot out of some bushes again.

We were saved again by another car nearly hitting it.

We turned and walked another way home, and came in at the top of the road.

We made it into the garage, just as the dog spotted us again.  But it had further to run this time.

We went out again a couple of hours later, without Sparkles, to another park.  And we didn't see the dog again.

Hours later when we were watching the rain, we saw the dog running up and down the road with another little dog.

There also seemed to be a few people trying to catch them.

Hopefully, someone does.
