Bruce's adventure in the UK

Bev Taylor helped us to locate Bruce and has asked me to submit a story to the CAR website. I have attached 2 images, the Bruce_and_Kirstie image was taken when Bruce was about 12 but Bruce_1 is more recent, he's about 15 in that one. I hope they are okay.... so here it is and we would like to thank Bev very much for her help :-).

Bruce, our 16 and half year old Border Collie cross, decided to go on an adventure last Monday and it wasn't until 7:30 pm at night, after we returned home from work, that we realised he had gone. Kirstie, our daughter, said that she had seen him in the yard at about 4 pm so we hoped that he hadn't gone too far. But, we were concerned because we now live in the Surrey, England and being winter over here it gets dark at around 6 pm. The temperature was close to zero, we have a river behind us and many ditches full of water in the wooded common in front of us. Beyond that, was a major road.
