work work work, and Jeffrey! :)

I can't even think about anything but work. End of the year book closing has been a pain in the arse!! Draming work, even.

But Jersey and I did a good thing after our meeting today. Luckily I was STARVING and we pulled on to the frontage road to get a bite, and traffic was stopped. A little Benjy looking dog was standing in the road just WAITING FOR US!!! I got out, and thank GAWD Jersey said "put him in the back!" SO I scooped him up, all matted and such. But a SWEETIE. He did not seem to be used to riding in a car, hence the falling over when we turned. So I got some food, and water for the sweet pea, and on our way. Stopped at an emergency vet and took him inside to see what they would advise. He luckily had a chip implanted, and they scanned it and the poor fella was FAR from home. they tried to call his family, and they did not answer. So off we went to the SPCA downtown.

They were about to close, when they scanned him again. The lady said we don't take strays and we are full. We would have to take him home and call animal control. Moments went by and the lady returned, as I finally got someone at the dog's 'house' on the phone. 'She' was an out of town guest, at the house alone, and did not know if the owners were missing a dog! (JERKS)!!! The story was totally bogus. It has been over 3 hours since I called and left my number, and haven't heard from them. HOWEVER, the SPCA told us that Jeffrey, the dog, was adopted thru them, and that they could take him. The nice lady, who recognized Jeffrey, said she would try to take him home and shave him and get him all cleaned up. So, mission complete. It was a true MITZVAH! He was, just waiting for us to pick him up. Meanwhile, they will keep him for 72 hours, and if not claimed, will find him a new home.

YAY JEFFREY! We love you SWEETIE!!!
