Yesterday I spoke with my brother, a cop. He said I'm okay but I should consider the local pound the next time. He said the dog being on my porch didn't make it mine, but I did have some responsibility in the matter which I executed in giving it shelter attempting to find the owner, and finding it a new home.

I got my courage up and went by the vets. The lady had come by the vet. She admitted she didn't have the money to pay for the dog, but wanted to meet the people and see the dog to verify that it was the dog. She claimed she wanted closure and to know that it is indeed okay. I told the vet staff the story she gave me. She was supposed to meet them today but canceled due to a family members ill health.

If I had known it was theirs I would have taken it over there and chained it back up. If they had been honest and upfront to begin with and before the dog was adopted, I might have come to some sort of agreement with them over the monies.

One of the vet techs today told the dog's ears were bad and that she had scars on her feet. And for such a young dog. Do dogs get scars on their feet?

I know she is in a happy home.
