Hope had always wanted a dog. She begged and begged. We kept saying "no." So she took matters into her own hands.
She and a friend were out playing and she came home thrilled. She had found a "puppy" that had no home. I was skeptical. Let the interrogation begin.
Where did you find the puppy? Was anyone else around? Did you just pick him up? Was it at a house? Does he have a collar?
She finally broke down and told me that he was in the neighbors backyard and the gate had been left open so she called the puppy and of course the little guy came running. She then proceeded to snatch him and run home. After the disclosure, That puppy was in her arms and she was marching back to where the crime had occurred. Seems the family had just come home with their new puppy when he was mysteriously missing. Oh Hope.
Five years later we have our very own "puppies".
