I Miss Haley

Haley was or is my dog. I have not been able to find her. She ran away from home over a week ago. She was not wearing a collar. She was old and did not go out, so I took her collar off because the tags made a lot of noise.

The day started just fine. I was working and it was pretty quite. I work from home. Well there was a knock at the door. I don't usually answer the door during the week beacuse I am working. My daughters call first if they need to come over. Well the person kept knocking and ringing the door bell, it sounded important so I got up to answer the door, first I peeked out of the window and that is when I saw the sprinklers on. At that moment I knew that whomever was knocking was trying to tell me about the sprinklers. They had been on for over four hours. I opened the door and there was no one there, so I ran to the garage to shut them off and then I heard someone on the side of the house. The man down the street was shutting off the water. I told him I had no idea the they were on and I thanked him. Then I went back in the house and into my office to work. Some time went by, then I started to get really cold, really cold. I went to check to see if the door from the house to the garage was open and no, it was closed. So then I looked down at the spot that Haley usually lays down on and she was not there. I'm thinking god I hope she did not pee on the carpet and is now hiding. I started to go to her hiding spot and that is when I was the front door, it was wide open I had not closed it after I answered it. I ran to the garage thinking maybe she did not come in, she was not there so I ran to back again not there. That is when I knew that she went out the front door. I jumped in my car and drove to the places she use to run away to. No luck. I called my boyfriend because I did not know what to do. He said that he would leave work right then and come home to help find her. I had to go back to work. Some people don't understand how imporant a pet is. Well he had no luck either. So I went to the shelter the next day and filled out a form for lost pets, I call the shelter everday for the recorded updates, I went to the shelter to see if maybe she was there, I put up signs. Nothing. Oh and to the nasty person who took down the sign in front of my house, SCREW YOU! So as of today I have not found her and I am really sad.

I love and miss you Haley
