Found a dog on busy road

Richard Ward

Today started out like any other day until I went outside to go across the street to the bank.  This poor girl was on 411, a very busy road, walking slowly in a lane.

She’s fur and bones and really stiff.  She is shaking badly after a bath.  Her fur was matted and there was flea dander, although I didn’t see any fleas.  

My head has hurt since I found her because I’ve cried so much from seeing her suffer.  

She looks like a cross between Alf and a fox.  I am thinking about calling her Alfie.  Obviously I don’t need another dog while living in town, especially one that needs a lot of care, but life handed me her.

I’ll do what I can for her.  If she doesn’t respond well, I’ll see if I can find a chiropractic vet to help her.
