I saved a dog today! Hi! I came upon a man chasing after a small dog. I stopped and asked if it was his and he said no. He asked if it was mine and I said no. He said he has seen lots of dogs get hit by cars on the street in our neighborhood. :eek: I decided to help save the dog. I stayed in my car so I could follow when it dashed long distances. There were probably 12 runners, walkers, dog walkers etc. trying to capture this dog. It dashed away and I followed it into a circle. I stopped the car and coaxed the dog over and it just jumped in my car. :) I think it was terrified with all the people chasing it. I hollared to all of the other dog lovers that I had the dog. I took it to the shelter and hope that the owner will look for it. I just had to share because my husband thinks I am silly to spend my time chasing after a dog I don't know :thumbdown. I know you all understand ;). |
I understand. I would have been thinking about the dog all night and wondering of an animal got it, or if it was hit by a car or if it was hungry. Good job!!! |
Good for you! I'm a sucker too! My friend lives in the outskirts of San Antonio and there are a lot of dogs that get dumped in that country area. We are always picking up friendly strays and finding them homes! |
You are a caring person and YAHOO! for doing the right thing. We need more people like you in this world. Thank you! |
I understand ,i would have done the same thing ,i cant stand to see a dog wondering around . |
Good for you. :smile: |
That's great! Way to go. |
I totally understand! What an angel you are :) |
Thanks! I knew you would all understand. I told my husband I was complaining about him on YT :p. He clarified that he thinks I did the right thing but doesn't think he would do that himself. I guess that's why he has me :D. |
Good job!!! Good thing the dog is safe now. :) I'm the same way. I'm still constantly reminded of a time when I was about 7 years old and I was with my dad in the car, and I saw this scragly old dog walking around. I begged my dad to pick him up, but he "didn't want some flea-bitten dog in [his] new car." Not 2 days later, I was at the convienience (sp) store, and I saw a flyer for a lost dog - "Jake" - the dog I had just seen. I don't know if they ever found him, but I still feel guilty. |
Hehe, I was ALWAYS stop if I see a stray dog. And my family makes fun of me for it, but CMON, I would want someone to be so kind as to do that if my dog ever got out. It would be tragic if it got hit by a car and you could have saved it. I'm sure whoever owns that dog is very thankful. Good job! |
I'm so glad you did .... It's a wonderful thing to take the time to save an animal that is lost and confused...... :heart to |
BRAVO!!!!!!good job:thumbup: |
I would have done the same... but then again, so would my husband! (Might be why we have 6 dogs... LOL!) |
You're a good person for doing that! :) I hope the owner gets him back! |

Reminded me of a story from when we were kids. Our dog got loose and we were looking EVERYWHERE for him. When all of a sudden, we saw a van drive by with our Harley sitting in the front passenger seat like he was on an adventure. We screamed at our folks who recognized the van as someone who live about a mile down the road. They had found him wandering and didn't want him to get hit, so they were taking him home until they could trace his tags. We thought either they were stealing him or that Harley had voluntarily run away! :p |
Way to go! Give yourself a pat on the back! |
Awesome job by you....I would have done the same thing because, I, too, would have been thinking about that dog for weeks wondering what happened to him. You rock!!:D |
Thanks guys! I know I did the right thing. I feel kind of cheesy but I am proud of myself. I even met a bunch of neighbors that think I saved the day ;). I really hope his owner picks him up too. |
thank you sophie's momma:) !! You did a Wonderful thing today and we are lucky to have people like you that would help a poor confused and lost doggie to find his home! Thanks again! |
If it were not for people like you, that dog may not be able to go home. You are an angle. |
You aren't silly for what you did! I know a lot of us on here would do the same. Congrats on being a hero! |
Thanks for all the reassurance and kind words! |
:thumbup:What a true dog lover you are. Congratulations for a job well done. I am sure if the dog could thank you for saving it's life he would. |
