Update 8 p.m.: Argus Leader Media has confirmed that the dog did get a free dog treat.

Original: A Sioux Falls pit bull must have heard about this week's Hy-Vee Fuel Saver perks.

Because he wandered in the South Minnesota Avenue store Tuesday afternoon.

The dog was found in the store around 3:30 p.m. Tuesday.

The store put out a Facebook message asking to help employees identify the owner.

The post was shared over 200 times and described the unexpected guest as a very friendly and well-behaved dog.

Employees called animal control. It turned out the owner lives across the street and ended up retrieving the dog from the truck, said employee Alex Engel.

The pup was kept in a separate area of the store for about an hour.

It is unknown at this time if the dog got any free dog treats.
