Charlie - Lost and found

Going to Mariachi's we saw a doggie nearly get hit. It couldn't have been more than a foot or so between him and the car that whizzed past going North on S.O.M. Center at Pettibone.First off I'm surprised that the car didn't notice a loose dog and slow down... second I'm shocked that no one was stopping to corral the poor guy.Thankfully the doggie was fine and I stomped on the dragging leash to get him under control. He's a portly beagle mix of some variety. White with reddish-brown splotches on his fur. And friendly!My faith in the human race got a bit better when someone else stopped too.En called up 911 to reach the Solon police to pick up the dog.As an aside, I'm not more comfortable with calling up the cops based on the mundane BS they seem to deal with all the time. This is at least a simple call to respond to.Right before the cop showed up: "Is that Charlie?!" from a passing red car. Turns out Charlie lives in a house on S.O.M. and his people sent out search parties!All's well that ends well!
