Added info:

I leave the back door to the garage propped open for the cat to come and go as she pleases. Unless I'm 100% certain that she's inside, I just leave it open. All three of us were inside, and going out for our morning walk when I took this picture. I didn't notice the deer until they stopped to look at it. We went back through the house, and out the front door for our walk. It's been about an hour, and the deer is still in my garage. Storms are expected for the next few days, so the mother probably just left it here. The dog's name is Maggie. She is 7. The cat's name is Bitsy, she is 9. Bitsy was recently shaved, as her fur was getting matted. I know that the deer's mother will likely be back for it eventually. I know to keep my pets away from it.

UPDATE: It has moved from the garage to the back yard on its own. There's a patch of tall grass that it's currently hiding in until its mom picks it up. The local herd doesn't normally come into the neighborhood until after dark. But it's at least healthy enough to walk around on its own. It even came around front to investigate what I was doing after I mowed the front lawn. Then right back to the back yard.

Even from this angle I can see the concern in those dog’s eyebrows :-) you have such gentle pets

This looks like the movie poster for the next Homeward Bound where the dog and cat help the fawn find it's family and the journey that it entails.
