    Not sure of where the family actually lives, but if they are at all ‘country folk,’ then it’s pretty common for dogs to be loose. I know in some big cities that I’ve lived in (in the southern u.s.) it’s even common to see a dog in a fenced in yard with the gate left open.

      First of all, I do know where they live: Dacula is an exurb of Atlanta, about two towns farther out than where I grew up. It’s kinda country, but not country enough to excuse dogs running loose (not that anywhere is these days anyway).

      Second, that’s all irrelevant because they had apparently taken their dog with them to Burger King.
