S is for Stray


Still no luck with the raccoon and this morning discovered a possible reason we didn't see / hear it last night. Opened the door and there was a very big dog snoozing on the welcome mat. This is the second Stray dog to visit us. The first came shortly before we had to leave and wandered off before we got back.

This one is a big gray pit with white toes. He's very calm and friendly (thank goodness) and has made himself right at home. Unlike the other stray, this one has a collar with a name & phone number but the phone number was no longer in service. Luckily this is a small community so when the UPS truck came by with a delivery (he would not get out of the truck and who could blame him) I told him the dog was a stray and the name on the collar. Of course the driver not only knows the owner but has his number and said he would call the guy to let him know the dog was here. Owner hasn't shown up yet.


S is also for the barn Swallow that has a nest up under the eaves.
