Quilt With Us

A week or two after Thanksgiving my friends daughter lost her puppy.  She had taken the dog to the store with her as she had done before.  This time the dog jumped out of the car and dissappeared.  There were sitings of the dog but no one could catch it.  Weeks went by, posters and news articles had no respones.  Recently word got to the dogs owner that someone just a mile up the road had been feeding a dog.  She went to the house to inquire and learned that the dog that was being fed did not match the decription of the lost puppy.  The dogs owner asked if she could check around to see if the puppy might have followed the other dog but was too afraid to come out while the lady was feeding the other dog.  Around the back of the garage they found poop and tracks from a small dog.  They found the little dog in a hole it had dug to keep warm under the garage.  The lost puppy was reunited with it's human mommy and ended happily.  Aside from being a bit skinny from lack of food the dog managed to survive in temperatures in the single digits.  It was missing over two months.

What an awesome story!! It is the worst feeling in the world to lose a dog and not know where it is.  You feel so helpless and worry about them.  We lost a German Shepherd many years ago for a week over the 4th of July.  She ran off because she was scared of the fireworks.  We put signs up everywhere and about a week later we got a phone call, went to check it out and found her, a lot thinner and very scared.  But oh what a reunion.  I am sure glad this situation above worked out for the little dog and the owners!!

This weekend I saw a "found dog" story on local t.v.  Endo, a 115# mastiff, turned up in Superior, Wi; he was originally from Florida and had been lost for 1 1/2 years.  Luckily, he had a microchip in his shoulder and the local shelter was able to locate his owners in Florida who tho't he had been killed by an alligator as had their other dog.  They were delighted to locate Endo but could not afford to pick him up due to 1500 mile trip one way.  The shelter was able to locate someone that will transport the dog when they drive to Florida.  What a grand story!

Thank goodness it found a friend--until it could be reunited with its person.

We recently had a lost dog event in our area, also with a happy ending. All too often, though, the pup is never found. There are people who kidnap (I can think of no other word) dogs to supply testing laboratories, just one more reason not to support animal testing!

What a nice "happily ever after" story!

I'm so glad the dog was found and in relatively good shape. Happy endings are always the best.

That puppy is pretty  resilient  surviving for 2 months on his/her own, even found a friend to help. Glad it's back united with their humans.
