While at the zoo, the plan changed, and her mother asked that Kesley be taken to her other grandmother\u2019s (Anna) instead.

He appeared to be unattended as he walked down the sidewalk. So when we got to Anna\u2019s we asked some neighbors if that was their dog, and they said no. After a few minutes of following him up and down the street, I picked up the dog and gave him to Anna who took him gladly since he reminded her of a dog she had that died a few years ago. Anna said she would post something on the neighborhood web site.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The short ending is that they finally went door-to-door and found the owner who was actually visiting from out of town. That family had been distraught over the loss of their dog and was overjoyed and very grateful when our granddaughter returned him. Kesley called June with the good news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The point is that God orchestrated our day to be there for that dog. We weren\u2019t planning to be in that neighborhood at all, and then we arrived at the precise time to see the dog. 2 minutes earlier or later, and we would have gone straight to Anna\u2019s, dropped Kesley, and left.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
