An encounter I was not expecting.

Basically I was playing Fallout 3 since I want to 100% the game. However one of the things I need to do is to reach level 30. So after going through the dunwich building on very-hard, I decided to head to Bigtown to do some glitch. Turns out everyone is dead. Don't know why cause there were still robots patrolling it. So I go outside and planned on going to the memorial field where I saw a dog. I thought "easy 5 xp." and prepared to shoot it. However it's marker was green...

So I walked up to the dog and it was the infamous Dogmeat. Now I completed 3 back in August of 2012 and since the day I first went to the scrapyard I never encountered dogmeat. I always assumed she had died. Nope instead I find her mid-rampage outside a ghost town walking towards me. Point is I wasn't ready for her to tag along with me so I sent her to Vault 101 to wait for me. I figure once I do 100% I'll go for a nice long walk. 

TL: DR - While in the middle of a rampage I encountered Dogmeat for the first time outside of Bigtown 2 years after getting the Platinum trophy for Fallout 3. 

*edit*

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

My fucking game froze on me and didn't save ANYTHING no Dogmeat, no bigtown, no mirelurks, NOT EVEN FINISHING THE DAMN DUNWHICH BUILDING!
