I helped save a dog today!!!

[lovemyshiba]

So I went to Wegmann's to get an ice cream cake for the hubby's birthday, and when I came out of the store, a little brown dog was standing there waiting to go in. I asked the people there if it was theirs and they said no. So I grabbed her by the collar, and the people were like, "why are you grabbing her, how do you know she's nice and won't bite you?" Well, she had the sweetest look on her face, and a collar, but no tags. I had some treats in my pocket, so I fed her a little, and the one guy said he would go in and tell them to make an announcement. Apparently the cart guy saw they doggie jump out of the owner's van
Well, something caught her eye, and she got away from me--she pulled right out of her collar!!! So off I went, along with the cart guy--through the parking lot, out by the highway (yikes), down past Dicks, and past Target, around all of the stores at least 3 times--she just wouldn't come to us. All the while, I'm looking for a frantic owner, but I didn't see anyone. The cart guy gave up, but I went in and told the managers--they said they would tell security. I told the managers of the other 2 stores, and they just said ok. Then I went out again, and followed her all the way past Target, and then she went off into a field beside there---a while down the road is Lowes, and I figured that's where she was heading. As I am trying to coax her to come to me, a van pulls up with a lady yelling "Heidi" and crying. She parked her van, and chased her through the field. I went halfway with her, but realized it was sort of out of my hands at that point, but walked slowly back, praying the whole time that Heidi didn't run out into traffic. As I was returning to my car, the van came back, and Heidi was in the front seat!!!!!!! The lady pulled over and thanked me a million times, and told me I was an angel.

I've never been so determined to do something as I was to find that dog,and make sure she made it home safely. I was very upset looking for her, because part of me thought it was my fault, and mostly I feared for her so near the highway.

Heidi truly had a guardian angel today, perhaps one of our own looking down on her from the Rainbow Bridge--I'm so glad she made it home safely.
