The closer I get...

This morning I brought Teddy's trail of treats even closer to our fenced in back yard. He was late again this morning, but he diligently gobbled and followed the trail. He seemed to linger in the open yard for a bit, and actually looked down at me standing at the door. As he moved toward his "dining area" I decided to try something...ever so softly I made my way up the back yard with a pocket full of treats. I moved slowly and deliberately and if I heard a noise I stood still. I eventually peaked around our garage and saw Teddy "cleaning up" his breakfast dish. He spied me and froze, I gently tossed a treat sort of in his direction but not at him. He looked at the treat then froze visually on me for a moment, and trotted away. Bummer! My neighbor left me a phone message telling me that he was around again a bit later...if only....

I will be setting the trap in place today, after the area is mowed. Hopefully, this will become just another part of his environment.
