Thank God you found his owner!

A few weekends ago, I went to KFC for lunch, and met two rather large dogs in the parking lot. They had collars but no tags, and weren't skinny at all. I loaded up and took 'em home, and they weren't even really hungry. (Salty had a FIT.)

We filed found-pet reports with the SPCA, the Humane Society, and Special Pals - and within the hour, the owner had called and came to get 'em.

I adore happy endings.

Yeah.... I have always wanted a border collie, but with my two old dogs and my Dalbrador still being a puppy, I had decided it would be too much, as intense as this dog was. I had already made contact with a border collie rescue outfit in case the owners didn't appear.

This was a highly trained dog, and a very well cared for one. I knew something must have gone wrong for him to be loose. The people saw my flyer on a post when they came home to find the yard empty. Said in the future they'd just have to take the dog on all vacations!

I took home another dog once, that was wandering a school, his owner was never found, but I also found a good home for him. I actually have vacancy in the dog dept now...
