Submitted By -I went to a part light call in 1994. There was this little old lady who said her lights did not work. I checked and found that only her porch light was out.
She thought the bulb was bad and asked if I would change it for her. I went into the garage and got the step ladder and put in a new bulb. Now all the time I was doing this, her little dog, a terrier of some sort, was barking and being a pain. she also had ducks and geese and a few chickens all over .
I said my goodbyes and left. About 10 minutes later, dispatch calls and asked if I had taken her dog. I said no and they said you had better check your truck. NO dog. Dispatch then said that she had called the police cause I had stolen her dog. I turned around and went back and the cops were there. She came out of the house and was mad at me about her dog. the cops and I started looking for the dog and found it in her back yard playing with the other critters. All this because I helped her with a light bulb!!!!
