Bonding with the Stray
After several days, the dog became more trusting. Its wary glances had softened, and now, it would allow Jack and Maria to come closer, even sitting beside them while they ate their breakfast. Jack noticed the dog had a gentle nature, and Maria couldn't help but feel a growing fondness for the stray. She began to call it "Buddy," and soon, the couple found themselves thinking about Buddy throughout the day, wondering where he wandered off.

Unexpected Discovery
One morning, while Jack was petting Buddy, he noticed something unusual under the dog's thick fur. There, hidden beneath the dirt and grime, was a small metallic tag. “Look at this,” Jack called out to Maria, gently lifting the tag for her to see. Both of them were shocked. They had assumed Buddy was a stray, but the tag suggested he had an owner. Curiosity got the better of them, and they decided to inspect the tag further.
