Something strange happened this morning.

    Got into my car this morning and before I could close my door a husky hound jumped over me into the passenger seat and sat there as if it was expecting me to drive it somewhere.

    Very friendly dog but none of the neighbours own it (that I am aware of) and it had no collar and looked like a pedigree.

    Took a little while to get it out of the car as well.

    you should have played "red rover" with it before chucking it out of the car.

    maybe it was a test from God who knows or maybe the dog was just looking for a lift.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Maybe it was the Littlest Hobo :eek:

    Jaysus, you'll have to keep that dog so, maybe it was a sign.....be a bad thing to give it away! :D:D

    Huskie, I'd love one, is it a dog or a bitch?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,089 ✭✭✭fuzzywiggle


    That's a gorgeous dog! If it's still there when you get home put up some ''Found'' posters around the area. I'm sure someone some where is devestated! If no one comes for it then keep it!

    He must have just been looking for a wee spin in the car, restless huskys tsk, maybe tomorrow he'll wanna settle down ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,804 ✭✭✭Setun


    Maybe it's your daemon?

    Keep it.

    True :D , maybe in the time it took you to get the dog out of the car, it resulted in you avoiding some terrible event, did the dog disappear then? :D

    Nice dog, i would keep it, they are worth a decent penny to if you're ever in a fix :p .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 282 ✭✭matu


    yep very true someone out there is missing a dog you should have took it in and gave it a good home until someone came looking for it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭Dooom


    Cujo?
    Except a completely different dog. And devoid of rabies. And not even remotely connected to the book/film.

    You just threw him back out??? Whatever other appointment you may have had that morning it would have been more than nice to just bring it to a vet or someone who might look after him rather than throwing him back out again. If something happens to the dog I hope his spirot haunts you and chews on your balls!! Outrageous!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,264 ✭✭✭✭Hobbes


    Relax.. I gave him some food to get him out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,558 ✭✭✭netwhizkid


    Holy Crap, First thing I'd have done was gone for a change of clothes as that would definitely freed my bowels up with fear. A Wolf in your car, Holy Bejabus :eek: I am fairly cynophobic even though I have a dog of my own but she is 13yrs and only a small terrier that is half deaf. Someone could have put the dog into your motor to take the p*ss too though. I once found a tiny puppy abandoned in a field and I took him home and looked after him till I got a new home for her and she turned out to be a cross between a Pomeranian and an Alsatian. Some match hey?

    HAHAHA. Would in my sh*te go out of my way for a stray dog. Though since it was a huskey I'd probably have kept it.

    The dog wasn't in the car when I came out, it just came out of nowhere and jumped into the car when I had sat down and about to close the car door.

    I actually cant believe you just threw it back out like that!

    Someone out there has probably lost their beloved dog! You should have taken it to nearest vets or kept it until you could bring it to a rescue..

    Cant believe some of the replies on here:mad:

    Or the little girl around the corner looking for her lost dog would not have turned the corner to find him sitting on the ground.. instead some fecker drove off with him....
    Jaysus!!!

    By the way that is an amazing looking Dog!! I would love one.

    would a vet look after a lost dog or would they just send it to the dog pound?

    I would have kicked him tbh. it was never invited into the car.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,269 ✭✭✭DamoKen


    maybe he was trying to tell you something. is there any old abandoned mineshaft or well close by?

    They might treat it or whatever but then probably off to an animal shelter I would say.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭scojones


    You did it all wrong. That dog must have had plenty of meat on it, could have kept you going for quite a while. If that's not your thing, then you could have sold it to the local chinese restaurant. There's a chinese place in Limerick that's right next door to a veterinary clinic, they have lovely dog on the menu.

    1. I didn't throw it out. It was already stray it just felt the need to get into my car.

    2. If they loved the dog so much next time they should put a collar on it so I can tell who owns it.

    3. If its still there this evening it will be going in the back garden and fed while I check who owns it.

    Number 3 seems to be quite a sensible solution. All joking aside, I hope he gets home ok.

    Fair enough to number 3. I lost my own dog before, and went through hell trying to get him back. I was worried sick.
    Huskies and other expensive popular breeds are being stolen a lot at the moment he could have been stolen and the collar removed.
    Bit sensitive about the lost dog thing...

    If hes still there this evening, put a post up on irishanimals.com.
