Little Lost Puppy ~ (Edited)

So the other day I am headed to the post office.  A block from my house I see a little white dog at the intersection.  I live in a relatively quiet neighborhood, but many drivers do not even slow down at this four way stop 😡.  I got out of the car to check on the little furbaby.  At first, it ran, but then hunched down and lunged like a puppy wanting to play, and immediately let me pick it up.  I figured it would be easy to find the owner of the little cutie, who after checking, I determined the pronoun to use is she/her 😁  She is not wearing a collar so I carried her around a several block radius of where she was found, knocking on doors and asking everyone who was outside (it was a pretty good weather day) if they knew who her owner might be.  She must have weighed all of 8 pounds.  She looked like a bichon and had been clipped recently so I felt certain she had wandered off.  Sadly not one person recognized her.

I took her home waiting for the local vet office to reopen, hoping and praying she was chipped.  Thankfully I had a collar that fit her.  She was just the sweetest, most friendly little pup.  Sadly she was not chipped so I made the heart wrenching decision to call the police and have her taken to the county animal kennel.  I thought that was her best chance of being reunited with her family.  I did not post to social media.  Being so darn cute, I was afraid many would come forward claiming she was theirs.

Yesterday I saw this on the kennel Facebook page.  I cried tears of joy.  The posting has not been updated and I am hoping and praying her family did come and get her.  I left the kennel a message, but have not heard back from them.  I just checked the FB page and she has been reunited with her family.  Oh how I love a happy ending 💘

Please, folks, if you have a pet, be sure to have them chipped . . . and be sure to register the chip and keep the information updated!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
