Was out with my dp and dd today. We were walking past dome public toilets when we saw a little dog (v little pedigree) on a lead no owner. I went after the dog who had gone into ladies toilet and was hiding behind one of the toilets. Clearly terrified. Managed to pick him up and then a woman with her dd came and said -please just take that dog home with you its owners are addicts and rowing in the mens toilets. I said to the woman to hold dog while I went to see if I would help. She wouldn't so I sent dp. He said they were locked in cubicle and all hell breaking loose. I told dp to call police. Then a police car came around the corner and we flagged them down. Mrantime a council worker and the woman who was still trying to get me yo take yhe fog said this couple were always doing this.
Then woman came out. She was about 30 and whilst bedraggled and dirty she was stunning. It really struck me . I asked if she was ok and she just said - I just want my dog. I gave him to her and said a really stupid thing "you will look after him wont you?"
what an idiot. Of course she told me to fuck off and stalked off with her dog.police talking to her dp.
I left as we had dd with us but I feel I should have helped her somehow. But how??? What could I have done? Especially as I upset things more with my stupid comment in an effort to get her to talk.
