The clinic I work at is also the impound facility for the city. This afternoon we had 2 boxers that were brought in - naturally I thought they were awesome
So at like 5pm a guy calls and says his boxers are missing and that he got our number as the impound facility... his phone started cutting out though and I assumed he knew his dogs were with us, and that he was just calling to ask how to get them back or something. So I tell him yep, 2 fawn boxers came in today, this is what you need to do to have them released to you. And he starts going "ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME!? You guys have them? And they're safe? omg this is so awesome. Tell me again what I need to do. I will pay any amount and do anything to get them back! Give them an extra treat please!" The emotion in his voice, you could tell this guy had a million pounds of worry taken off his shoulders after hearing his dogs were okay. Genuine relief.
He was there picking them up within 30 minutes. He was sooooo relieved that his dogs were okay and so excited to get them back. It was just awesome because we see a lot of crappy cases where animals just don't get claimed or the owners don't care - like last week 2 dogs were brought in together, belonging to the same family, and the owners only picked up one of them and said they didn't want the other one.
Also, half day tomorrow wooo!
