Asking For Help...

Asking for help didn't seem a problem for this adorable boy. He'd escaped from his home and came to the door while I was at work this morning, he sat there making funny little barks, with big brown eyes pleading for assistance.
I feel like he knew I could help him, so of course I did.
He was so full of energy and kept dashing out on the road and running around in circles on the front garden. He was definitely taking advantage of this walk around the neighborhood, he was thoroughly enjoying his freedom with not a care in the world.
But he was also in danger as he had zero road sense, there were a lot of cars, some speeding all oblivious to a joyous puppy on a fun day out.
I could see a disaster happening so I called him off the road and phoned the rangers.
 While I was giving them all the details I got off his collar, he took several baths in the pond, which gave him the most unpleasant odour, as well as covering him in stinking mud. 
Then he sprawled out on the settee on the front porch, giving me a cheeky side eye and demanded belly rubs.

Of course I obliged until the ranger arrived to escort him home, by then I was muddy and stank like smelly pond water too.
A random encounter with a beautiful soul, it totally made my day...

I thought for one mad moment you were going to say you'd taken him in for good - I can see why you would!

Good job there are kind souls like you in the world 🥰

What a cute visitor you had. It's a good thing you got him off the road.
