Safe Pup
Forgot to tell y'all that about a week ago I went out to check my mail and saw an adorable puppy in the middle of the busy street my apartment's on. I stopped traffic and got the dog out of the road, checked her collar, saw a phone number and that her name was Abby.
I tried to hold onto her, but she kept getting away and going to sniff the smashed bird embedded in the double yellow lines. I had to stop traffic two more times before I could coax her to the back of my house so I could get my cell phone and call her owners without threat of her getting hit.
I got the phone, called her owner who lives across the street in the log cabin with the cool old convertible in the carport, and he came right over to get her. He must've been at least 6'6" and nice as could be. He had on orange pants and a brown jacket and looked like a musician...like most of this town.
It was nice to meet a neighbor, and made me really want a dog. I think I'll still wait until I own my own place, but that was one cute lab pup!
