The topic: Lovely day

----------------------------------------------

I was sitting here, fishing on Facebook and I hear a woof outside.  Go out to see what it is and there’s this beautiful shepherd mix, bicolored eyes.  Friendly as all get out.

The neighbor across the street came over and said he’d seen him earlier, let him in his yard, but his dog went after this guy.  There’s a little blood on his face.  :( Anyway, we got the neighbor next door to me to put him in her yard for the time being.  I’ve got a found dog sign out and the neighbor across the street has a lost dog sign up.

This guy does have tags.  I called the number on the tag and was told “bring him in”.  I said “can’t you just look up the owner of the tag and let me know who it is and I can contact them?”  Sounds a lot less stressful all around, right?

So, I get the name and number.  Number is no good.  I went online looked for people in the area with that name. There are two listings for that name, one has the same address the shelter gave me, but a different number. And it’s no good.  *sigh*

So, I’m waiting to hear the mail truck coming up the road and I will ask the mailman. 

After we had Jack in the neighbor’s yard (that’s his name…“Jack”), I came home to a bird in the entry way.  So, of course I had to drag the ladder out of the front door, kicking at cats along the way (didn’t want one running out the front door) and it took about ten minutes to get the bird.

Now, I wait.  And I was so looking forward to a stress free Saturday.

UPDATE 12:26pm:

Jack’s gone home.  I guess his owner called his friend to tell him that the dog was out and he came over to the owner’s house, and drove by with Jack’s little girl and they took Jack home.
Before we gave him up, we asked this guy what the owner’s name is.  He got it right.

He turned around and drove up the street and around the corner.  I wonder if Jack is the doggie who introduced himself to KittyMeeze earlier this summer.  I wouldn’t think so, while he was interested in Kitty, he didn’t seem intent to catch or kill.  Whatever, Jack’s back home. Yay!
