ODD THINGS THAT CAUGHT OUR EYE THIS WEEK
Ruff work for Texas cops A DOG in Texas reported itself missing last week, after strolling through the doors of a local police department and putting his paws up on the counter (right). The dog entered Odessa Police Department in Texas and hopped up onto the counter, though he didn’t seem distressed at all. Speaking to The Dodo, Sergeant Rusty Martin said everyone played with the dog for a short while, whilst trying to find his owners. Sergeant Martin said: “We were all excited to have him in the building. We had a tennis ball and threw it in the lobby for a bit. Everyone loved him.” The dog was wearing a collar when he arrived at the station, but the ID tag had apparently fallen off, so animal control came to check for a microchip. However, the dog had other ideas, and left the station before animal control could arrive. “He ran out just as quick as he came in,” Sergeant Martin posted online. “The owner responded the next day [to say that] it was his dog and he had returned home. He lives about a mile from the station.”

THIS WEEK’S TOP TWEETS As much as I would like to believe I’m not an Irish stereotype, I did just use the buffet in this 4-star London hotel to make a ham and cheese roll for lunch later.
A slice of apple pie is $1.40 in Jamaica, and $2.60 in the Bahamas. These are the pie rates of the Caribbean. @StephanieYeboah
