Can't say that I blame him.

DALLAS — A Dallas nurse who recovered from Ebola will soon be reunited with her dog, which has been sequestered since his owner became ill.
The King Charles Cavalier spaniel named Bentley is in quarantine at an abandoned Navy base in Dallas.
His owner, Nina Pham, was diagnosed with Ebola earlier this month. She contracted the virus while caring for a Liberian man, Thomas Eric Duncan, who died Oct. 8.
City spokeswoman Sana Syed said Thursday that the dog has tested negative for Ebola and that his 21-day quarantine — the Ebola incubation period — ends Saturday.

Maybe the dog doesn’t want to go back.
Why didn’t the dog hire a lawyer and fight the quarantine? He should have threatened to sue the state. /s
Cute doggie, glad he is OK.
“Maybe the dog doesn’t want to go back”
Yep. after all Odingo practically licked Pham in a photo op.
No, Ms. Pham is a trooper. She did everything right and was as gracious and, BTW, appropriately dressed for her press statement - a rarity of late.
I’m sure this nice little dog wants to go home.
What about this nurse’s boyfriend? There hasn’t been any more news about him.
Can't say that I blame him.
For later
Her boyfriend probably wants her disenfected after Zer0 licked her.
Hope they post the photo of Nina reuniting with her beloved pooch Bentley..Nina is a sweet girl she did everything right(Except meet with Obama but that was probably forced upon her) I prayed for her speedy recovery, glad that prayers were answered and that she is just fine..Bentley is a cutie pie, Dallas Animal Services did a great job taking care of the lil guy
I am so glad she is well, and her dog is ok. Time for a nice article for sure. Not many of those these days. Enjoy them while you can!
Excellent. Let’s hope cops don’t decide to shoot it before getting it back to her.

Oh that is too funny!
The Daily Mail has an article for it now:
It’ll be all over the Daily Mail for sure.
She is gorgeous!
He’s going to miss those funny yellow suits.
I think a reunion photo would be terrific. Both dog and owner are real troopers. Best wishes for them.
Since viruses can behave differently in different species (example: rabies can take from between 3-12 weeks in some species to show itself), how do they know that the dog is clear?
