ATLANTA, Ga. (CBS46) - Imagine waking up in the morning and snuggling your dog only to open your eyes and realize that the dog you are laying next to isn't yours. That's exactly what happened to one Polk County woman whose story has since gone viral.
Julie Thornton Johnson says it's normal for one of her three dogs to sleep in her bed. But one morning, as daylight creeped in, she awoke to find someone else's dog snuggling up with her. Johnson said she had no idea how the dog got into her house so she posted a picture of the pup to social media asking around.
The story caught the attention of the dog's owner, Cris Hawkins, who lived a few houses down. Hawkins reached out to Johnson explaining that the dog, whose name is Nala, must have slipped her collar in the middle of the night and ran down the street; somehow making it into Johnson's house and eventually her bed.
Both Hawkins and Johnson seemed amused by the situation noting how comfortable Nala looked.
"Good luck getting her out of my bed," she wrote.

I LOVE NALA! A gal who knows how to get things done!
She just needed a place to sleep for the night!

Dogs are so smart!
They sure are! My neighbors dog always finds a way to escape and make her way over here.
