IT was poetic justice in the end for this dog.
Police found him wandering the streets of Derry last night.
And after making a few inquiries, PSNI Foyle say they were delighted to have reunited him with his very happy owner.
So here is PSNI Foyle’s Facebook ode to the lost but reunited dog:
“When you were sleeping 😌, as I was too,
Local Police 👮🏻patrolled the city for you
“They stumbled upon a sad lonely dog,
Wandering aimlessly, lost in the fog
“He had no lead, no food, no bone,
The Peeler thought ‘I need to get him home!’
“He jumped in the car brash and bold,
Happy just to get out of the ❄️cold
“They did some detecting 🕵never giving up,
Until they found the home for this pup
“The owner said ‘thank you’ with joy in her eyes,
To be reunited so quick was a real surprise
“We’re not usually in the dog saving business,
But we’ll always help; Merry Christmas 🎄
