Barb, time to get the shotgun cleaned and serviced.

Or a dog trained to sic balls.

Or a big machete!

Bonny! One, I owe you email. Two, one of my dreams last night was about sitting at a coffee shop with you, both of us coloring away in our coloring books. (Yes, I bought the vampires coloring book. I kinda had to.)

Ooooh. I like this dream! And, as it turns out, there is a coffee shop immediately outside my window...and several others within a block.

Now. All we need is a transporter!

And, by the by, I was coloring seconds before sitting down to read the threads.

These are all sounding good right now.

I don't think there is much chance of Obama caving on Planned Parenthood. But watch him cave on Umpty Ump more billions in spending cuts to save Planned Parenthood. Double Dip recession here we come. If Robert Reich was not already right, this is will make him right.

oh crap Sparky. sass~ma.

Oh Sass. Come home quickest! It's not so fun out there, for reals.

She's been seen as far away as the zoo, which is halfway home, but later back towards where she was lost. She could be anywhere.

Sparky, I just rang your number twice and it sounded like someone picked up, but I couldn't hear any voices.

Please ring me back or send me an email if I should use a different number.

I want to share a website, www.lostdogrewards.com.

This woman helped a friend of mine, whose Miniature Poodle was lost for more than a week, to find the little fluffball safe and sound. The posters she creates are incredibly eye catching and had the whole neighborhood out looking.

It turned out that the 5 lb dog had walked from Eastern Market, to the graveyard at Gallaudet!

If, for any reason, this woman can't help you, my landlord hired a pet detective when his dog went missing from my neighborhood. She was eventually found on the Rockville golf course. I can get that fellow's information to you tomorrow.

In the meanwhile, please let me know which area Sass was last in. Perhaps Bartleby and I could make some rounds.

eta: Not sure why it is still up, but if you look at the DC link on the lostdogrewards site, the poster you see there is for, believe it or not, Sparky, my friend's dog who is now safe and sound.

One thing my friend said the dog finder said to her was that dogs tend to walk in straight lines, rather than in circles. Sparky walked straight up 6th Street

Oh, Sparky, I'm so sorry. I hope she's found soon.

Her doggy daycare is still near Lauriol Plaza, right? If so, I'll modify my route home to keep an eye out for her.
