Man's best friend, indeed. :-/

My silly dog didn't like being left alone at home, while I went out for dinner. He literally tore the wood from between the panes of glass in the kitchen window and knocked out one of the panes. He spent some time running around the neighborhood, getting soaked with rain, before finally returning home. He is currently visiting my parents a few hours earlier than planned. (They are going to watch him while I'm away.)
