The lost puppy

Pretty much everyone that knows me, knows that I have a deep love for dogs. Especially my precious little girl Izzy!



One morning I was on my way to work and saw an bulldog walking down the road. It was Friday and I was running late (as usual). I just couldn't help but stop and turn around to see where the dog was going. I knew that if Izzy had gotten out and was wandering around, that I would want someone to rescue her. And that's what I did. Of course I didn't know his name but he was a friendly doggie. After following him down the road a little ways (mind you I was in 4 inch heels), I got him to follow me back to my car. I tried to get him to jump in my back seat but that was obviously NOT happening. This guy was a little heaiver than Izzy....But I managed to get him in the floor board of my Explorer.

I drove around for a little bit trying to see if his owner was outside. There was gate to someone's back yard that was open so I knocked on the back door to see if there was anyone home. No luck. I ended up taking him home and decided I'd go back and leave notes on doors near where I found him with my number. Izzy wasn't particularly excited to meet this dog. She probably felt like I was cheating on her. :) After about 5 minutes, I finally got him up the stairs and into our apartment. He got a little friendly with Izzy and she did NOT appreciate it. So I decided to lock him in the extra (Rem's) bathroom. I went back to the neighborhood near where I found him and as I was talking to a homeowner, noticed a guy across the street calling for something. I drove over and surprise! It was the dog's owner. Come to find out the dog's name was Casey and a toddler had let him out to use the bathroom before anyone else was awake.

I promptly returned Casey and headed to work. Ended up being about an hour and half late. Whoops! But I was so glad I was able to reunite Casey with his owner!


 I think this puppy had some sort of skin condition...He had HUGE nipples! LOL
 This is his tail...Poor puppy is balding!
Poor puppy was probably thinking I was a crazy lady for picking him up and locking him in my bathroom.
