| 説明 | READ THIS!!! One Saturday morning I was driving to Allison's house to pick her up when I saw this guy walking a large brown dog. I was really touched by it and thought it was awesome 1) that he had a dog and 2) that while I don't have any disabilities I'm still too lazy to walk my dogs most of the time but this guy was out with his. I picked Allison up and we went about our day together. When I was driving her home I saw the guy again with this little beagle puppy. He was crossing an intersection and had the puppy on his lap. I noticed that the puppy looked like it was kind of falling off his lap and as I was driving Allison the rest of the way home I started to get really worried about them. What if the puppy fell off? Did it have a leash on? What if it got in the road and he couldn't get to it in time? So, being the obsessive dog loving weirdo that I am, after I dropped Allison off I drove around the area where I saw him to make sure him and the puppy were okay. I didn't see them at first and was getting ready to give up when I noticed the puppy's head poking up over this ditch on the side of the road near a small bridge. As I got closer I noticed that the guy's wheelchair had gone off the sidewalk (the sidewalk had about a 6" drop off the side near the bridge) and he was wrecked on his side holding on to the puppy's leash. I yelled to him that I was going to help him, parked my car across the street and ran over to help him. It took me a couple minutes but eventually I got him and his wheelchair up and back on the sidewalk with the puppy in tow. He couldn't really talk very well but he kept saying "Thank You" and looked like he was going to cry. I played with his puppy for a while and talked to him about dogs a little bit. He said he had two of them, the puppy and the brown dog I saw that morning. I told him that I had seen him before and he seemed to think that was pretty cool. So, after I made sure that he was okay and the puppy was okay I said goodbye and watched them take off. I was shaking really badly after he left and was really emotional about the whole thing for a couple of days after. I think for me, the worst/saddest part was that the whole time I was helping him get back up, there were people driving by and walking by and not a single person stopped to see if we needed any help. Lots of people stared, but no one even slowed down to make sure he/we were okay. I guess it's a good thing I'm super emotional and love dogs as much as I do. Who knows how long he would have been stuck there if I hadn't decided to drive around and look for him. Anyway...that's my story. |
