Puppy Interruption

I always tell people that it is interesting to work and volunteer in a Thrift Store.That you just never know what you're going to come across and often what's going to happen. Today at our Thrift Store we had one of those moments.

It was break time this morning and I was back there as well grabbing a quick snack when all of a sudden a little puppy dog came straight into the break room and was on her way to keep going when I whistled her back. She went back out and I presumed that her owner was in the store and she was heading out to them, but that wasn't the case. So someone picked her up as she was without a collar or leash and I took the puppy and headed out to see if we could find her owner. Our next door neighbour is the local pet supply store so I headed over there thinking that if that wasn't where the dog had slipped the owner maybe they would know who she belonged to as she was obviously well cared for. Before I could even open the door a lady came running out hugging me, hugging the dog and generally happy her dog had been found safe and sound and delivered into her arms.

It was a tiny little thing that anyone would do but she was thrilled and it made my day to make someone happy with such an easy task. The little dog was adorable too and once again I want a puppy. So, there ya go...you just never know what'll happen in the Thrift Store.

Aren't puppies cute? So much nicer than cats...you didn't expect me to miss an opportunity to make a cat comment did you?

I know you love your cat...okay we'll let you have one...but a puppy is cute!

Thanks for letting me have my cat there Fred! A puppy is very, very cute and I do want one in a big way...after Little B and the celebration you have when she dies.
