Placing notes on someone else's pet...

An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard; I could tell from his collar
and well-fed belly that he had a home and was well taken care of. He calmly
came over to me, I gave him a few pats on his head; he then followed me into
my house, slowly walked down the hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.
An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out.

The next day he was back, greeted me in my yard, walked inside and resumed his
spot in the hall and again slept for about an hour. This continued off and on for
several weeks.

Curious I pinned a note to his collar, 'I would like to find out who the owner of
this wonderful sweet dog is and ask if you are aware that almost every afternoon
your dog comes to my house for a nap.'

The next day he arrived for his nap, with a different note pinned to his collar, 'He
lives in a home with 6 children, 2 under the age of 3 and he's trying to catch up
on his sleep. Can I come with him tomorrow?'
