On their way home from church Abby and Andy saw a stray dog on the freeway. Being from a crazy-for-animals family they stopped and picked it up. It had a tag on it with a website address and a ID number.
They carted the dog home and put it in the garage. Oscar went CRAZY in the house. Abby got the number and Joni looked up the website. After calling the number listed on the site and giving the ID number they got an address. They Googled the address to find out where to return the wayward pup.
Meanwhile Abby had taken out a dish of dog food. No one will ever accuse the Mitchells of cruelty to animals.
As Joni was looking up the address Andy was saying that he should get the reward for picking up the dog. Abby laughed at him and said, "the dog probably was only missing for an hour. I doubt you'll get a reward."
With address in hand they packed the puppy back into the car and went to return him to his family.
They went up to the door, dog on leash, and rang the doorbell.
The door opened.....
A woman looked at them holding her poor lost puppy dog and said.......
"I'M GONNA KILL YOU!!!" (to the dog, not to Abby and Andy, thank heavens)
She took the dog and Abby and Andy returned home,
without even a thank you,
let alone a reward.

Wow, nice lady! Sheesh.
No good deed goes unpunished.
Some animal's people.
I found a wallet on the road one time. It was full on cash and credit cards. I also found a drivers license in it, and took it back to the owner. She had left it on her car and drove home. When I showed up with it, she hadn't even missed it yet. She took it looked in it to see if all was there and closed the door. I didn't expect a reward, but thanks would have been nice. :) Kent
