The dog keeps coming to a womans house and just slept and one day this note was attached to his collar

One evening, a woman came home to find a golden retriever sitting at her door. The dog was clearly well-cared for, with a clean coat, a collar, and no signs of hunger.

When she opened the door, he followed her in, lay down on the carpet, and promptly fell asleep. The next day, he quietly left just as he had come.

Yet, the next day, the dog returned, settled onto the carpet, and fell asleep again.

This became a daily routine, with the retriever visiting her house each day just to nap.

Curious about the dog’s story, the woman decided to leave a note attached to his collar, writing, “To the owner of this lovely dog: Do you know your dog visits my home every day, naps for a few hours, and then leaves? I’d love to understand more about this behavior!”

The following day, when the dog returned, there was a response attached to his collar:

“Thank you for letting our dog visit. He lives in a house with six children, the youngest just three years old. All he wants is a quiet place to sleep. Would you mind if he continued coming by?”

The woman couldn’t help but smile, realizing the dog had found his peaceful retreat in her home. The story reminds us of the unexpected ways animals find comfort and how simple kindness can mean the world, even to a weary family pet.
