I found this photo about a certain resident of Minot that loves high places!

Last February, this fellow went up and wouldn't come down until his owner got him. The Animal Control Police tried to get him down, to no avail. They said, "When you think you have seen everything!"

Minot is in North Dakota.
Did this happen in SD or ND?

Did you get my pm?

I never knew there was a Minot, SD.

Odd, I searched Google Map for Minot, SD and it can't find one but it found Minot, ND.

Carol, well, the article said South Dakota. So...

I just loved the photo!

Having had cats in the past, I know they love to go up high; but look at that puppy! lol

BJ, the puppy was all happy up there; he wouldn't come down for anyone but his owner. He just went up on the roof and sat up there all day waiting for his owner while neighbors and cops and animal control came and tried to coax him down.

lol

Thanks for the pm. Carol. Next time someone dies and you know I am a friend, please tell me...

Adele, foxes go up on people's roofs! Cool.

Isn't the dog beautiful?

Fido on the roof
Dave Caldwell, Staff Writer
Minot Daily News

In the course of a normal day, the Minot Police Department receives several calls about dogs doing normal dog things getting loose and running around the neighborhood, digging in the garbage or just plain barking.

However, there wasn't much normal about the call that Dick Schnell, animal control officer at the department, handled Tuesday morning.

A caller reported this handsome fellow was doing not only the aforementioned normal things, but climbing on the roof as well.

"Just when you think you've seen it all," Schnell laughed later Tuesday.

Apparently, the snow in the back yard is high enough to where the dog can basically walk right up onto the roof, Schnell said.

The dog seemed perfectly content on the roof of its home, in the 1300 block of 25th Place in northwest Minot. He eventually came down to the lower level of the roof to snack on some treats Schnell tossed up to try and tempt the dog into coming down, but that's as far as the dog went.

The dog's owner was summoned, who eventually returned home and got the dog off the roof.

Well, the aforementioned article does not say North or South Dakota.

So, it happened in a Minot, though. lol

Elly, I'm sorry. I was shocked and didn't think of pm-ing everyone. I made the post.
There is no Minot, SD. Must be a typo in the article.

Foxes will do anything that looks like it will amuse them!
