Ever feel lost? No one is helping you? I was cleaning dishes when I heard a whine behind me. I turned to see a dog standing in my door way. He startled me at first then I started to talk to him. He wagged his tail and he looked at me with eyes that spoke of a feeling of being lost. I fed him some meat. I tried to call him inside but he would just act excited. I scratched behind his ear and I pet his head. He loved every minute. Whenever I come across such an unexpected situation, I turn to google. I found the animal shelter but they are not open right now. Their answering service says call the police department for a "pet emergency." Well, there is no urgency yet. I fed the dog a croissant. He took a piece and walked out the door. I thought ok, no more dog. I heard a cry of surpise from the mailbox station. I walked out to see a van parked and they honked their horn a few times. A woman got out the car exclaiming if the dog is gone. I believe he scared her when he said hi. Oh funny.
He returned and my brother woke up to a new visitor. I put out water. The dog sniffed every corner of the apartment for something to eat. He was desperate. He got some more meat. I gave him another croissant. He took off again out the door before I could call the police department. Again, croissant means the dog will leave for privacy to consume the meal. He came back. I called the un-emergency hotline. Sue the operator said animal control can be called in the morning. I have a dog until then. I decided to get some dog food. I tried to get the dog to stay when I leave through the door. He sprinted and wedged himself through my legs. I followed him around my building. I don't want there to be any trouble since there are no animals allowed in my apartment complex. I carried him back. I decided to stay put.
Here I am with a dog wondering the apartment constantly looking everywhere. I hope it'll be fine until the morning.
