An old, weary-looking dog wandered into my yard one day. From his collar and healthy belly, it was clear he had a home and was well cared for.
He ambled over calmly, accepted a few pats on the head, then followed me inside. He shuffled down the hallway, curled up in a corner, and promptly fell asleep.
About an hour later, he headed for the door, and I let him out.
The next afternoon, he returned. He greeted me in the yard, walked straight inside, settled into the same spot in the hall, and slept for another hour. This routine continued on and off for several weeks.
Curious, I finally pinned a note to his collar:
“I’d love to know who owns this sweet dog and whether you’re aware that he comes to my house almost every afternoon for a nap.”
The following day, he showed up as usual—with a new note on his collar:
“He lives in a house with six children, two of them under three years old. He’s just catching up on his sleep.
Any chance I can come with him tomorrow?”
