I had gone to California in early February to see my mother and sister. I had to take my dog, Tucker, with me. Tucker is a therapy dog. Which means she goes to hospitals and senior homes to help the kids have someone to play with and for the seniors to pet and have a few minutes of love from something that doesn't ask for anything in return. While I was at the gift show in San Francisco I left the dog with my sister. I was gone for only a few hours and had my cell phone with me. It wasn't until I got outside that my sister was able to contact me. She called to say that Tucker had run away and they couldn't find her. I cried and prayed all the way back to my sisters house that God would bring Tucker back.
I called the police and because Tucker was a therapy dog they
sent a bulletin out right away. It didn't matter that I was from
Oregon. Dogs like these take years to train and only give love.
As God would have it a woman with her own therapy dog heard the
radio message and spotted Tucker crossing over six lanes of traffic.
It was a miracle that she didn't get hit. The woman sent her dog
after Tucker and told it to bring Tucker back to the car. And
that is exactly what she did. The amazing thing was that Tucker
was crossing the highway for the second time. I will be forever
grateful and so will the people whose lives she has touched. It
just goes to show you that the Lord watches over all his creations,
large or small.
