Happy Ending!

Four days ago we were coming home from WalMart around 5 a.m. and almost hit two dogs, we live in the country and streetlights are few and far between. We turned around to make sure they were ok, I’m an animal lover, if I had my way my house would probably be a zoo, and we also had a dog get out of our yard get hit on the same road so I had to do something. One of the dogs ran off and one, a male pitbull, jumped in my lap. He came home with us, we slowly introduced him to our dogs, first our female Juliet, then our male Romeo, and then both of them together. They got along pretty well, there were no real issues, and we put up a found ad on craigslist. My husband brought him around to the houses in the area we found him and everyone said they’d seen him around for a while but didn’t know where he belonged. We decided we’d hang on to him, he was an excellent dog, and if we didn’t find his owner we’d just adopt him into our family. Well the boys were a little rough with each other and this morning I noticed a few bites on Romeo’s chest. Then the husband caught the end of a scuffle and Romeo had a cut under his eye, it was becoming obvious we couldn’t keep Diesel, not when Romeo was getting hurt. Driving home yesterday afternoon we thought we saw the other dog in someone’s yard, but since it was dark the first time we weren’t sure, but Tom drove Diesel over there to see if that was where he belonged… and it was! Diesel, whose real name is Zone, was so, so happy to see his owner. Zone is his son’s dog and he’s been so upset since Zone pulled his disappearing act. Everyone is happy!
