Brownie Aka Blue

We have fed, wooed, wined and dined a stray dog for two days. My husband Joe, who is a sucker for dogs, named him Brownie. This stray, Brownie loved our dog Buddy and Buddy loved him. Buddy kept inviting him into the house by way of doggy door. Social media helped us help Brownie find his owner yesterday. He was a pit bull, and his name is Blue. I was scared of him. His owners collected him at ten o’clock last night. Another good neighbor came down and corralled him for me. Buddy spent all day today looking for his friend. I finally told Buddy that Brownie had found his Mommy. I think he understood because he settled down after that. Blue had broken his chain during those danged fireworks.

Oh dear, I can understand. I hate how fireworks upset animals. It is all so unnecesary. Fireworks are for the beach and a very special events...not days on end because you have them and must set them off!

We have been hearing not only fireworks but gunshots for two weeks; our property backs up next to a fool's.
