Seismic Max!!?
Permalink Closed

If you've seen today's new you'll probably know about the earthquake in England. The epicentre was in Lincolnshire. Strongest earthquake in 25 years within the UK. It happened at 1 a.m.

Well, last night at 1.a.m. Max woke John up by whining. He thought Max needed out for the toilet (although Max very very rarely wakes us up in the middle of the night unless he has an unpset tum). John duly let him out into the garden and Max only took a look around and came back inside and settled.

Was he aware of the very minor tremors that according to the news affected Scotland also?!
Seemngly animals are very sensitive to this.confused.gif

Nobody moved at mine. Snoring from all corners of the room. None of your "little Timmy's stuck down the well" for my lot.

My mum always used to say 'it would take an earthquake to wake you up' - but it didn't in Edinburgh, as for Mason sleepy.gif

Interesting that no one elses hounds seem to notice anything. Might have just been pure coincidence with Max or maybe he's a light sleeper weirdface.gif

Nowt in ours either, well as far as I'm aware Jet didn't wake up - if he did he didn't tell us in his usual whiney way. Saying that, Jets not a bad lassie - he woke Craig up once when I'd passed out on the floor from a heavy night out!!! my doggy hero!!!

Wow, he is a hero. My two won't move once they're in bed. OH can come back in middle of night from work and they won't stir from their beds. A burglar could come in and they wouldn't care.

LOL, Mason would probably step over me to get to the sofa and as for robbers, the most they would face is a good lean.
Will say that my former neighbour's son was a window cleaner and the first time I had him in to do mine he had to yell for his mum because Mason kept pinning him to the wall, by leaning against him and refused to let him leavesmile.gif
I had heard tales of my aunt's Great Dane Sheba who twice foiled intruders by pinning them against the wall with one giant paw above each shoulder and staring into their face until her owners came home.
Once they came home to find the back door open and Sheba standing at the two foot wall at the end of the garden looking down - the other side was a 12 ft drop and at the bottom was a guy who had fled, leapt the wall and broken his leg, Sheba knew better than to jump after him.
I like to think Mason was protecting my house by leaning on David, but I know in my heart he was just trying to keep a new male pal there to pet himwink.gif

Our old lurcher was great at welcoming people into the house as we found when someone tried to break in, they seemed to have got as far as the getting through teh widow then there was some blood and a footprint. i guess they changed their mind?

Jets a good guard-greyhound. Once the letting agents of our current flat came around (without any prior notification) and tried to let himself in the flat with their spare keys and apparently didn't get in the door as Jet stood and growled at him. We only founf out when they came at their properly arranged time the following week. Ha ha served them right!!!!

That's hilarious. I like to think, being on a groundfloor that anyone thinking about it at my place would be put off by the sheer size of Mason who would be at the window at the first sign of anyone trying to 'come in to see him'.
I actually saw a girl at the bus stop outside my house scream out loud one day when she turned to see him towering on the sofa as he strained to watch me come in the gateweirdface.gifweirdface.gif
I mean, he's not that big, is he??
