The other day I witnessed something truly heartwarming. As I was walking up the street, an enormous dog on a mission sprinted past me, leash flowing behind him like a tie caught in the wind. Confused, I looked around for the dog’s owner and I noticed that everyone in the vicinity seemed to be doing the same. At the bottom of the street, a tiny old lady was yelling in a panic and struggling to run up the hill. Then the mischievous dog decided to head straight into the road. At that moment, it was as if the whole world stopped for this dang dog. The little old lady called after him from the bottom of the hill, ‘Billy! Billy!’ and like a game of telephone, everyone on the street stopped what they were doing to cry ‘Billy! Billy!’ Even traffic came to a complete halt and drivers stuck their heads out of their windows to call for Billy. Finally, Billy listened to one passerby up the street who happened to have some doggie treats in their pocket. “Billy’s okay!’ they said, and the message got sent back all the way down to the little old lady in another game of telephone. She was able to relax, catch her breath, and eventually reunite with Billy. That little moment really restored my faith in humanity. Maybe these adorable and hilarious dog memes will restore yours!
