Question

1. A friend of mine, Teddy, claims he barely escaped death by not being attacked by two Dobermans, or as he calls them a pack of wild hounds. As his story goes, when he was a teenager he was visiting his favorite cousin, Bob, and classmate out at his family's country home in upstate New York. On this particular day as he pulled into the driveway he hit the car horn to let everyone know he was there, but no one came out of the house to greet him. He found that odd because all of the cars were home in the driveway. He said he parked the car and started to walk around to the back of the house which had a huge fence around it, but as he opened the gate something told him not to go inside and to just sit tight in the car until his cousin came home, which he did. About 5 minutes later he saw Bob and a neighbor from up the street walking toward the house. At that time he realized Bob had a bandage around his ankle. After Bob heard the story he was relieved he didn't go in the back yard because the neighbors two Dobermans were in the fence lurking in the backyard - it seems that both dogs had got out of the neighbor's house and ran into Teddy's yard and chased them both into the backyard, once in the backyard Bob's sister hid behind the gate and slammed it shut as she twirled around it to keep the dog's in, Teddy had to jump the fence, scrapping his ankle in the process. Poor Bob's mother was so upset she had to go to the pharmacy to get a tranquilizer because she thought Bob and his older sister had been attacked when she heard all the barking and commotion outside.
