A friend's dog is missing since almost one week. I feel bad. If my baby went missing I would be frantic. The dog went missing by the Astoria-Megler bridge on the WA side. I drove to where the dog has been spotted (supposedly) by random people.
I first went there today during the day and then I went again in the evening after dark. No dog.
Only some weirdo that got upset with me that I was looking for the dog. So yea some angry dude yelled at me, in the dark in the middle of nowhere. Must be fun to be paranoid, perhaps I interrupted his meth transaction. I suspect that is what he was doing.
Anyhow....I will try again tomorrow. I am hoping that somebody sees the dog and manages to grab him. And then brings the dog to an animal shelter or figures out how to get the dog to my friend. I have found a few dogs in the past and managed to find the owner/s.
So I am hoping this will end well.
The Astoria-Megler bridge is like four miles long.
That is WA (Washington) state over there in the distance.
And speaking of dogs. A man in GA (Georgia) was recently sentenced to 475 years in prison for dog fighting and animal cruelty. Finally time that fits the crime. I hope the sentence sets the tone for all future animal cruelty convictions.
Everybody involved in working on this case are amazing humans, amazing humans care about animals. They pointed out the importance of the concept, "if you see something, say something". In this case a delivery driver noticed that something was wrong and alerted authorities. I hope that all the dogs rescued go to safe places, preferably loving forever homes.
If I could I would have six pit bulls living with me at home right now. If I had a lot of money I would help animals.
