Yes - made myself late for work many a day, catching a stray dog & finding someone to take it over....last time it was an elderly labrador (rather like our old girl, ambling along the A128! I stopped, managed to catch hold of her, hauled her into my car, and drove into the nearest village, stopped at the post office & asked if anyone knew who she was, found out where she lived and took her home - turned out that the poor old girl was beginning to suffer from dementia & was always managing to dig her way out of the garden & wandering away.
My little girls friend as a beddlington. I saw it roaming the streets. Me and my 3 girls chased it round for 2 hours. Poor little thing thought it was great just playing a game of chase. Anyway we cought it in the end took it home and they didnt even know it had gone.
Next day the mother told me. Its ok to leave it, it just comes and goes. Some people. Beautiful thing it was too. They dont live round here now.
