Rural living is entertajning sometimes. It's not uncommon to end up with a random dog in the yard. Usually they're friendly cow dogs that get bored and go exploring.... which happened today. This dog was sweet, but he was young and had no clue which direction to go for home. So, off to Facebook, I go. I post a picture of the dog, asking if anyone knows the owner. I got an immediate response from a bored housewife... "It belongs to that guy with the red cows at the 4 corners" ... as if every intersection doesn't have 4 corners and every other house around here doesn't have cows.
So, I loaded up this dog in my car. I decided we'd go for a little drive and wait for a less casual answer, while keeping my new friend from running on the nearby highway. We made a 30 mile round trip to the nearest store for a dog biscuit and some fuel. Ultimately, we got our answer, my new buddy went home, and the guy's cows were black.
