A kind North Carolina woman who took in a stray dog she saw dumped in the street during a recent snow storm has been charged by police. Dason Garner saw Ring doorbell footage of someone dumping the frightened female labradoodle pup on a front porch in Wilson County on Saturday, where temperatures dropped to a bone-chilling 21F. Garner, a vet tech and groomer, said she scooped the dog and took her back to her house before contacting animal control, WRAL reported. 'In her condition, [and] as a vet tech and as a groomer, I don't foresee her coming like that,' Garner said. Less than a day later, Garner said she was able to contact the dog's original owner and found out she had been missing for months.
