A Dog is not just for Christmas

Luis and myself were watching a movie when he heard something walking on our roof.  Upon further inspection we found a very sad lonely looking dog walking on our roof.  Our roof is made of slippery tiles and as we are three stories up we were pretty concerned of how to get him down and a little bewildered how he even got up there.  Luis managed to get him down to our balcony and we set out to find out who he belonged too.  This in itself was a difficult task for me, as he is an old lovely dog, obviously was/is a pet and clearly mistreated.  He was in need of some medical attention so finding his owners did not really seem like the right thing to do but we decided we could not really steal him either.  No one in the neighbourhood claimed him, so we set up a bed for him at ours.  Of course, Lola was thrilled with this idea, the kind hearted soul she is to other dogs...  Luckily later that night my neighbour climbed over to ours and explained she had found him in the park and looked like he needed medical attention and when she was out he must have climbed from her patio to the roof.  The lovely dog, we named Carlo, is now getting medical attention and a home is trying to be found.


Thankfully there are lovely people in the world like Pia my neighbour who take it upon themselves to help dogs like Carlo.  It makes me so mad to see such a lovely older sad dog abandoned and neglected. He was clearly once upon a time someone's pet and clearly not any more.  I hate that, so not ok. He was so happy to be with us and I hope we can find him the loving home that he deserves.  A dog is part of your family, if you do not feel this way then really do not ever get one.
