On Sunday, I was getting ready to travel to a two-day workshop in Nuneaton.

4th July 2025

Bags packed, head in work mode.

Then I noticed a small dog wandering outside. No collar. Clearly lost.

So I paused. Took her in. Called the dog warden. Posted on Facebook and Next Door. Made some posters. Put them up around the village, talking to strangers about a missing dog.

And then, by chance, bumped into a man searching for her.

Her name was Betty. She was 14. Very sweet.

The workshop still happened. But so did Betty.

A lovely reminder to stay flexible. Stay kind. Stay open to the unexpected.

Because you never know what’s going to happen next.
