Saved the Day.

I was out on my morning run, my runs are my favorite "Me time". I day dream, listen to music and think of what I should make for dinner.
On this run I witness a dog shoot out of it's house, owner quick behind and see the owner scream as the dog runs right smack in front of a car. This particular car had mighty breaks because it missed the dog by an inch. The owner tried to get her dog to come to her but by now doggie thinks all this is a game.
Then I swear I see her pointing at me as I run toward them, she's far enough that I can't hear what she's saying, but I think she's telling her dog to come and get me?
I approach within ear shot and she IS telling her dog to come toward me.
The dog looks harmless and I realize the dog loves strangers.
Owner wants me to pet her so she can grab her.
Nope not happening, dog comes close enough to lick me wiggle her butt at me but when I reach out to her, she runs.
Again, she's playing a game.
So I don't chase her instead I get on my knees and invite her to me.
Stinker falls for it, I grab up the little piglet of a dog and hand her to mama.
Her mom is extremely grateful and thanks me over and over.
Did I save the day?
Yes I think I did.
