A Dog Story

"An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard. I could
tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had a home and
was well taken care of.

He calmly came over to me, I gave him a few pats on his head.
He then followed me into my house, slowly walked down the
hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.

An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out.

The next day he was back, greeted me in my yard, walked inside
and resumed his spot in the hall and again slept for about an
hour. This continued off and on for several weeks.

Curious I pinned a note to his collar: 'I would like to find
out who the owner of this wonderful sweet dog is and ask if
you are aware that almost every afternoon your dog comes to my
house for a nap.'

The next day he arrived for his nap, with a different note
pinned to his collar:
' He lives in a home with non-stop chatting wife, 6
children, 2 under the age of 3 - he's trying to catch up on
his sleep. Can I come with him tomorrow?"
