Rhona Mitra Instagram – So this sassy little widget rocks up at the gate like butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth, after disappearing into thin air eight months ago!
We had written her off for either stolen and used as a hunting dog, shot by Neighbours for messing with sheep, or caught in fencing somewhere…
She’s never left our thoughts and hearts, and every brindle dog we saw on the road we stopped reversed or U-turned and scoured like maniacal stalkers.
Turns out, she’s been living the life of Riley two farms away where an employees little girl had been feeding her cookies, specifically alfajores, if you know, you know. They are fairly irresistible…
Of course Selkie wasn’t going to come back in a hurry but she was delighted to see us all which was at least some comfort.
They renamed her obviously and as she’s been living with them now for the last eight months, they put an ad on social media the day after she went missing that was almost identical to ours…
(how they missed ours is slightly questionable , but we’ll turn a blind eye as shes been treated very well)
Funny the stories we create in our minds…
Many of you had been asking and truly we have been stumped.
We have decided, to give her back to the little girl, it’s the best possible outcome for everybody.
she remains in our neighborhood, safe and loved by people who adore her.
At the end of the day, sometimes we are just a pitstop for some creatures, a safe haven on their journey, the only thing that we ask is if they should ever run into any issues that she be returned to us, where she will always have a loving home and family.
‘This being human is a guesthouse….
Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.’
