Safely Home: The Best Laid Plans…

I took my dog, Lolita, an English Shepherd, out on an evening walk. I left the back gate open, like I usually do, since that is the way Lolita and I would come back home. On our walk I ended up running into a friend who came back to the house with us. Without thinking, I led my friend and Lolita, also known as Lola, through the front door instead, forgetting the back gate was open…

I was just winding down to go to sleep when I heard my phone ringing. Getting up to grab my phone, I also saw that I had an email. The message said that my dog had been found when I didn’t even know she was gone!!!!!! Thankfully, some good people found Lola and brought her to the closest vet to get scanned. Lola was also without her collar, as I had taken it off to go on our walk with the training collar instead. Luckily for Lola, she has a PetLink microchip and luckily for me, we are reunited and I am one Happy Dog Mom 🙂
