It's a Doggone Wedding When the Dog's Gone!

July 06, 2007

Caulkins thought his dog Chonch would be a cute, fun addition to his wedding. Instead, the pooch sent wedding guests off a massive manhunt! "My niece took Chonch outside for a walk [and] she accidentally dropped the leash and he took off. The wedding party spent the rehearsal evening in the woods looking for Chonch — and my mom ended up in poision ivy." Things got worse that night, he says: "We stayed up all night – but only heard coyotes." Terrifying indeed, but Caulkins was in for a wedding miracle. "Hours before the wedding, neighbors called [saying they] had heard a yelp. My dad found Chonch [with his leash] wrapped around a tree! They arrived 30 minutes before the wedding." All's well that ends well!
