That is literally not figuratively.As most of you know Shadow follows me everywhere, but once we go to bed he is all over the house. I never know where he is going to sleep. When I get up in the morning he appears. Sunday I got up and no Shadow. I finally started getting worried and looked for him. I looked in every room and even under the bed. No Shadow. Then I looked outside and in the car. Ray was asleep, and I woke him up to help me look. He put his robe on and it was when he opened the shut closet door to get his slippers that we found our stupid dog. All night and not a sound was made.
