I had ordered several months back, step counters, for Marie and I, since we've had them, I've lost mine three times; the first two times I retraced my steps, where I had gone, found it both times. This last time; I tried the same thing for about a week, "almost", and could not find it. I've been making a new trail so figured it's gone this time, probably buried it. Tonight while taking the garbage can to street on the golf cart, they pick up in the morning, took Foxy and Leo, and when we were going by the new trail I'd cut in, I noticed Foxy, about ten or fifteen foot up new trail digging, looked closer and saw the little step meter getting dug up, and then popped into her mouth. So I called her and she brought it to me. They are not really expensive, but really surprised me how good a nose she has, to find it buried under dirt, no bigger than they are.
