" sweet sweet dog "

---

today while at work i found a dog wandering the streets and no one was around that looked like they owned this dog, so i whistled it over and he was this beautiful chocolate brown beige and white tinged dog. mid-sized and no barking-type.

i had no idea what to do, but felt that i couldn't leave him to roam the street all willy nilly, so i took him into my work and had him lie down near to me so i could keep an eye on him. i checked the tags while giving him some water and there was a name and number, so i called it.

no one picked, up and they had an emergency pet number to call, so i called them. they said to bring the dog by at 10th and university after i was done closing at work.

i took the dog there after work, and he was so trusting and sweet and sad. i wanted to find his owner so that he could go somewhere where he could be loved and get food and shelter...

when i got to the pet hospital i filled out some forms and answered some basic information questions, but when it came time to leave him there, they said that there was no room!

where is this sweet sweet doggie going to stay? i toyed around with the notion to take him home, but i found out that you could locker stays at the dog pet emergency center on 2nd at addison. so i drove there next.

the hardest part was putting him into the locker. i filled out the form and wrote notes to the place employees on how i found him, what i did while he was in my care, and how he ended up there. and then when it came time to place him into the locker, he didn't want to go in. i had to sit there and sing bob marley songs to him so that he knew that i had tried my best to do him right.

as i left the lockers area, i felt so bad that he had to stay there.

tomorrow i suppose i will find out what is going to happen to him, sweet sweet doggie.

with fingers crossed for good luck,

good night.
