The other night Jeffrey and I woke up to the awfullest sounding noise you have ever heard!! Jeffrey got up to see what was happening and quickly came back in the room and told me that I was not going to believe what the noise was. Our chocolate lab, Coco, along with his parents dog, Joplin, had treed a coon on our back deck. Coco at one point even got up on the ledge to try to get the coon down. Jeffrey tried to call the dogs to the front of the house so the coon would get down, however this did not work. The coon was too scared to come down and who could blame it the way our dogs were barking and growling at it. It was 2 in the morning and there was going to be no sleep until the coon was down. Jeffrey called his dad to come help because I was not going out there with that coon. It was hissing and the dogs were barking like crazy. When Jerry got there he held the dogs while Jeffrey knocked the coon down with a broom. We quickly let the dogs go but the coon proved to be too fast for them and scurried up a tree before they could get to it. Amazingly all 4 girls slept through the whole thing....what good little sleepers we have!!
