Stray-Animal magnet.

Okay.  So why does this happen to me?  :-)

I was on my way to work today and saw this puppy.  Scared to death.  Darting across a busy street, hiding under cars.  Of course I stop.  :-)  I try to get the puppy to come out to me... and she just starts darting across the street even worse!  I try to tempt her with potato chips.  (hey- it's the only thing I had in my car)  I finally just grab her and pull her out from under a car after I see her almost get hit.  

I put her in my lap.  We drive home- to the garage.  (aka- the animal shelter) I noticed that I still had the kennel out there from the cat that I had saved about a week later.  I can't help myself.  I have to laugh out-loud.

I call work.  I am going to be late.

I call Animal Control.  Leave a message.  He is out on a call.  Oh great... Now I have to sit here and look at this poor baby.  :-)

I get her some food and water, and she goes to town on it!

Finally, an hour and half later, I have to go to work.  The baby will just have to stay the night in the garage.  Animal Control can come in the morning.  :-)

So... off to work I go.  I get home and give her a bath since she was COVERED in transmission oil.

Animal Control will come in the morning so everything is fine! :-)

Well.... Animal Control came.... and left.... without her!  :-)

Hey- I am attached now!  :-)  She was not micro-chipped.  No one had reported her missing.  So- she is staying!  Off to the Vet tommorow for shots and check-up!  :-)
