Amyth, it's why greyhound adopters are advised to put needs medication on the tags for their dogs. People make stupid assumptions about loose dogs and justify it by telling themselves they're doing the right thing to keep someone else's dog. Greyhounds in particular, because they're naturally boney pups, but I bet it extends to most other breeds, as well.
People. They make me cranky.
Ease~ma for Burrell and family.
Yeah...when we were kids, we found a poodle who was old and cute and had painted toenails...it was great to spend that day with her, but my mom was like "What if someone found Peppy(our cat) and liked her and didn't give her back?"
Peppy was like our little sister so we let the lady have her poodle of course.Also, seeing them reunited was a really nice memory.
Every time I log on, I hope to find good news about Sass.
Strength to Burrell and family.
It's bad enough that my plantar fasciitis has come back with a vengeance, without the blue ice thing I was icing my foot with springing a leak. I didn't realize it and now it looks like I have a badly housebroken alien.
My brother did have a terrier for a month that somebody had lost...it took the owner really long to check findapet.com or something, but they did find each other eventually.
We can only hope that if Sass has been taken by someone else, she runs away from them, to someone who does check her chip/see the info!!
Sparky, I just posted the info about Sass to my tumblr/twitter/fb.
Sparky - even tho I'm more lurker than anything (damn work!) I posted to my son's HS marching band FB page, I'm sure that network of parents has connections to DC. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Sass' return.
We have the exact opposite problem right now. A couple of months ago, the kid next door to my mom found a little older chihuahua but couldn't keep him at his house so my mom took the dog. He's not chipped, and we have posted signs, newspaper ads, called shelters, etc trying to reunite dog/family but so far no joy. He's a cute little dog and my mom will keep him but I'm just sad knowing that there may be a distraught family somewhere. At least I know that my mom is spoiling him rotten.
