HARLEY 1 ~ GOPHER ~0
Earlier in the evening, Rocky and I took Harley for a walk down at the Harbor, half way through the walk Rocky remembered that he had left the hose on down a gopher hole. He turned it off when we got home but did not see the gopher.
As the night progressed Duke, Asta and Harley were barking like crazy as Norma and I were trying to watch a movie.
She finally had to put her boys inside and Harley came in with us.
Then like 5 minutes left of the movie, Harley takes off and we can hear Duke and Asta barking like mad dogs inside Norma's house! They are going crazy!
I asked if she wanted to pause the movie, and she said no, we are so close to the end.
I couldn't stand it any longer, I put my shoes on and as soon as that movie was over I took off. She followed.
There in the darkness, we could see Harley's silhouette throwing something in the air, then it landed and hissed at him with those long yellow knife like teeth. Meanwhile, the Beagles are inside still going crazy! No time to find the shovel, I picked up a brick, Norma let her boys out which caused Harley to become greedy in his delightful quest.
He took off to the darkest corner of the yard, Duke and Asta following. I yelled "leave it" the command for drop that f'ing gopher!! He did and I was about to either drop the brick on a pile of POO or a gopher. It landed square on him. We pronounced him dead and removed the body in a coroner approved grocery plastic doubled bag. He was soaking wet which leads me to believe the incident all started with the hose.
Treats were given all around for the effort to get the attention of two movie watching bad mamas.

The End
