dog opened the back door this morning to get a drink, i didnt know & took milo on my shoulder to get fed & she was off !!! im absolutley gutted!! shes sitting in a tree around the corner but wont budge, as shes only 11 weeks old has no fave toy, food etc, im just lost for ideas !!! been there since 8 am untill 1530, i just came awayh hoping that when i go back in a hour she might be glad to see me & come down, as she hasnt been fed since her last meal at 1030 last night !

OMG Steve, go stay by that tree and keep your eyes on her and don't let her out of your sight, I wish I could help you but I am across the big pond from you.

[JJsHoney]

OMG, I've got chills, I can't imagine how you are feeling.. keep her in your eyesight.. Im hoping she will come down to you when she is hungry..

well looks like the recall training paid off !!!!!, i been there most of the day as i said, so i decided to go home for a hour or so to see if she would be glad to see m8, well she was, as soon as i started shouting etc she perked up i walkes backwards calling her & she took off & came to me & landed on my chest !!! so shes back home now safe & sound, i am so happy !!!!!! , that was some scare i can tell you, i love that bird !!

Thank heavens you have Milo back but please don't let that happen again as it might not have the same happy ending.

[Birdnut]

Thank God! Hurray for recall training. I think I'm going to start right now!

 

Sounds like you need a latch on your door.

OMG I hadn't been on here all day and when I first read this post I was thinking the worst! I am so very, very glad you got Milo back!!!

[venom]

thanks for the comments, it was my stupid fault at the end of the day, my dogs been popping out for drinks for years & i think i just got complacent, what i found about this is how fast and high a grey can fly at 11 weeks !!!!!, the dogs water dish is now inside lol, as for milo , well she is only getting out in front room with us now with doors & windows locked!!!

[judygram]

Glad to hear it Steve, I knew you would see that Milo never makes that escape again, well done.

[birdhouse]

So very glad to hear this had a happy ending!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[venom]
