Matlock’s abandoned dog mystery had a wild twist

Turns out, that 'abandoned dog' causing a stir in Matlock wasn’t a dog—or even alive! Locals kept calling police about a sad, tied-up pup on Chesterfield Road, only for officers to discover it was actually a toy reindeer left out in the open. The police had a laugh and let the plush 'fella' enjoy his November break. Folks in the comments shared their own double-takes, with some even slowing down to help. It’s one of those quirky moments that brings the community together—who else has mistaken something odd for something real? #Pets #Matlock #CommunityLaughs
