Hi
Well a little dramatic head line, but here is my story. It will probably sound exagerated, but its all true.
I left my friends house last night around 12:45pm and was driving home. As I was driving I saw something small furry at the side of the road and thought I would slow down. All of sudden it run out in the middle of my side of the road and stopped. I had to do an emergency stop to ensure I didnt hit it. I realised it was a dog. I immediately put my hazard lights on. A oncoming car stopped as the dog stopped at the central road line. I said I was pulling over to try and find out who the dog belongs too. When I was walking towards the dog with the other couple the poor dog was really scared and was growling at us. It was a small Picanese dog and everytime we went near it to look at the collar it snapped at us. Another car pulled over to help us and we all were trying to get this dog off the road, but was having no luck. One of the men got a small coat and covered the dog while we moved the dog to the pavement. She/he was so scared. I managed to get a close to see the collar had not tag. We all didnt know what to do after that. I phoned my dh to see if he could get a RSCPA number, but before he called me back the lady managed to get a Laybourne number from 118 118. So I phoned the RSPCA, who said they were closed, but if we were calling regarding a stray dog to call this number. I shouted the number out so the man called RSPCA who said they were closed and needed to contact our local council dog catchers
It was 01:15 the time was getting on and we could not see any end to this story. Me and the 2 girls were adamant we were not going to leave this poor dog. Nobody could take this poor dog with them, the other two couples lived with thier parents (young adults) and I have a German Shepherd who is scared of other dogs and a small cat. Considering it was snappy I didnt want to chance it with the kids. We all decided to contact our local police station. After the girl was on the phone they called us back. The police woman described the dog down to the 'T' and said she knew a owner of a Picanese dog in that area we were in. She said she would call us back. Within 5 mins the police lady confirmed it was there dog and to wait with the dog until the owner arrived. It was now 01:30 and the owners arrived. It was so sweet they called his name his tail was wagging and he ran over to the owner. The owners were so grateful we all stopped and helped his dog. It was really nice feeling that I made someone happy last night.
Bruce was not happy that I stayed, because of the time, but I said at no time at all did I feel unsafe. I certainly would not leave a poor dog on his own. I was so surprised the police woman knew the owner. Either complete stroke of luck or it was fate
