I had quite an interesting day today. It did not turn out the way I had planned. I got up early with the intent of driving to our local Sam's Club and coming back home to do a long training run. As I was about a mile from my home I saw what I thought was a deer cross the road ahead and run into someone's yard. I slowed down in case others crossed the road and to my surprise a big yellow lab ran out behind my car. When I stopped to get the dog, a car behind came up behind me. The lady stopped and the dog jumped up at her door and ran off. My love for animals made me turn my car around and go look. He was out on some busy roads and I did not want him killed. After a 10 min. search I find him running through a back yard. I stop and call and he comes. I grab his collar and open my back hatch of my Suburban and he jumped in. He had a name tag and it took me five minutes to get the number and address because he was panting so hard and licking me in the face. I call both numbers and no answer. I track his home through my On-Star and find he is 3.5 miles from home. I get him home but no owners. So I get back in my vehicle to pull up to a neighboring house when he jumps in the front seat. I guess he thought I was leaving. The neighbors let their dogs out in the adjourning fenced in yard and he goes crazy leaning on my steering wheel while I was backing out of the driveway. My horn is going off and my wheel turns an I go right into their mailbox breaking it off. Great! I drive up to the neighbors home and beep the horn. My extra leash is in my storage box which my hubby took out of my vehicle yesterday so I could throw my bike in the back. The neighbors are staring at me out the window and no one comes. I go to get out of my car to go to their door and Luke almost knocks me over to get out and it is taking every bit of strength to hold this massive dog back. I get the door shut and finally unlatch a bungee cord with a snap hook on it from the back seat that I use to keep it folded up so my dogs can get in the back easier. The dog is dragging me across the neighbors front lawn in the snow. The neighbors open the door and he literally pulls me inside where I plead that I am not some crazy person and explain that I found their neighbors dog but no one is home. The owners tell me that he can stay with them and I tell them that I took out the dog owners mailbox and will pay for it. Now I go back to check the mailbox and get it of the street and find that it is one of those..."we all have the same mailboxes" that are made of heavy medal and cost several hundred dollars because the home is in a neighborhood of $700,000.00 homes and the dog owner is a dentist. On top of this, my tail light is smashed. So I am now waiting to get a new light from my auto garage. Several hours later the owner calls and tells me that he has been at his son's hockey game in Port Huron, MI and that they left the dog with a dog sitter and when the sitter opened the door thei dog took off. They are on the way home and so happy I found their dog. The dog got out 2 miles north of me and was actually about 5 miles from the sitter. My car garage repairs my car and I now have a $200.00 repair bill. But the dog is alive and my car repair garage owner tells me about two bizarre cases where two people are suing him. His business has been so slow and having me come in instead of gong to the dealership brightened his day. I never got my run in but the dog is safe and I gave a struggling business owner some work. It was a good day.

1/28
19.66 miles (Dave's miles)

Clepant that is quite a day! Glad you were able to get the dog safely home

Adding a little over 10 today from running
