In The News: Buried Dog Turns Out To Be Balloon
I give the Washington Post credit for occasionally posting lighter stories going on around the DC area- like this one that caught my eye:
A resident reported that a white dog appeared to be stuck in heavy snow in a yard; it had not moved in some time, and the caller feared for the animal’s safety. An officer entered the yard and discovered that the “dog” was a metalized nylon balloon with the face of a white dog on it. The balloon had become lodged in the snow.
At least the resident meant well.
