I found a service dog

[game blouses]

She was drinking water from the hose on my back patio. Right now I have her tied up on the patio with water, some food, and me and DS #2 keeping her company until her owner calls me back. The address on her collar is about 30 min away. I hope whoever requires her services is okay

Oh man, I wonder how she got all that way? Poor dog and person. Hopefully they call soon so she can get returned.

Oh, that makes my heart hurt. I hope her owner is okay.

Oh no! That's concerning. If you have the owners information, you may want to alert the police for a wellness check.

This it would be fairly unusual for a trained service dog to get separated from it's owner without something happening.

Lurker chiming in; PLEASE call the school the dog came from. They have response teams and they need to know there is a problem with the match.

I can't agree with this more. My brother has a service dog and if she's ever too far away from him, it means he needs serious help. Please call both the police and the dog's organization.

game blouses, update? Did the dog get home?

[game blouses]

She did get home! Her owner was visiting one of my neighbors and was calling for her a few hours later. I was ready to pack her in the car and check out the address on her tag.

Man, if only that dog had a cell phone.
