sad story from a blog I read   
   I was coming home from my Chiro appt today and a little black dog  got hit   
   right in front of me   
   The car did not stop  It kept going.   
   I stopped  I got out and went over to the little dog he was still alive.   
   I looked around and no one was out so I petted the little dog and he crawled   
   over to me   
   I got down on my knees and he put his head on my lap. I was raining hard but I   
   did not care at the time.   
   I knew he was dieing.   
   He was  bone thin dirty and  sad looking   
   I pertted his head and said nice things to him.  Yea I lied I said he would be   
   OK   
   He closed his eyes and was gone.   
   I sat there crying and looking around I saw a little boy at the front door of   
   a house near by   
   I said is this your dog he got hit. He said no  he is just a stray.  my dad   
   would not let us feed him he would never go away   
   I said  you dont know who he belongs  to   he said no   
      
   I went over to the dog and picked him up   
   I put him in my car   
   I took him to my vet to see if he had a micro chip   
   He did not   
   THey vet said he was just a stray   
      
   He said do you a want me to take care of him for you?   
   I said no he is my dog now,  I will bury him at my home,  next to the rest of   
   MY family pets   
      
   I got home and realized I looked  terrible I was wet and dirty   
   My husband  looked at me and said what happened?   
   I told him he looked at me and said nothing   Just helped me   
   dig a hole.   
      
   The little stray has a home now.  At least for a brief moment he was loved and   
   he does have a home now.
