514.Nash County Animal Friends' Notebook
Once upon a time, someone found a little dog in the middle of the road outside their home. They finally lured it into their fenced in yard. It was Winter. It was raining. They put out an email, saying they were looking for an adopter. Which, of course, is fine, but you must try to find the owner first. Pets are property and you have to go through the legal steps to consider it your own or it is theft! You start with notifying Animal Control, because the owner might be looking for it there. You also cannot assume that the condition of the dog is reflective of lack of care from the owner. It could have been lost a long time.

I’ve never been a person that likes change. I have a set routine that I like to follow and if it gets messed up, I get frustrated. Unfortunately, in the newspaper business, you have to be ready for change because it can happen at any time. One of the many great things about working in a newspaper is all the people you meet. I meet new people almost every day and I love it. The bad side of this, however, is the fact, that you have to be prepared to say goodbye to some of the people you’ve met and grown accustomed to.
