Lonely Dog of Decker Drive Keeps Faithful Vigil
For about three years the reddish brown and white Lonely Dog of Decker Drive watches the road near Texas National Bank. She stands or lies on a dirt mound, waiting for someone who never arrives, returning after rain subsides. Brisket Barbecue staff once fed her but now she is missing daily meals, and her owner remains unknown. Baytown Sun photographer Glenn Folkes tried for a close shot with a telephoto lens. If anyone knows the dog’s owner or destination, they’re asked to share.
