https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/animalia/wp/2017/08/27/a-photo-of-a-dog-carrying-a-bag-of-food-after-a-storm-hit-texas-went-viral-heres-his-story/...A dog was walking down a street, carrying a big bag of dog food.
Its like hes on a mission, said Dockens, who lives a few miles away from the Segovias. I just thought it was so cute.
So she took a picture and shared it on her Facebook page. The photo quickly went viral, and the dog became an online celebrity.
Facebook post:

apparently taking care of 5-year-old grandson's dog during this disaster and the dog disappeared -- the bag of dog food presumably came to grandpa's house with him. Neighbors reported seeing him, and he's back safe with grandpa and child.

It is a really smart dog!

a great time to need to shop for special items.
