Sadie and Moo might be getting a new friend! (And no, I am not getting another dog.) Heh. My neighbor said that they might be bringing home a stray tonight. A very sweet, neutered, male Dalmatian who is about a year old from what anyone can guess. He has been staying with a lady who lives next door to G's office. She was so worried that the pup would get hit by a car that she has him tied up on her back patio. The patio is outfitted with a nice dog bed, plenty of running room and such...she has two dogs of her own and can't keep this guy. She found him wandering around by the street about a week ago and took him in, put signs up, the works. Everyone agrees that he obviously belonged to someone - he is neutered, he obeys commands, and likes people. Tommy has a friend checking with the local Dalmatian rescue people to see if anyone has reported one missing and tomorrow they will take him to the local vet to see if he is micro-chipped.
I am excited...if he does end up staying (which he will unless they find his owners), Moo will have someone around her own age to play with. It will also give me an idea of what it would be like to have a third dog around. Yeah, I have already offered to doggy-sit if they have to go away over a weekend or some week when I am home. I am also happy for Tommy because he has really been missing having a dog around. His golden ret. passed about six years ago now and since then he has been really busy with working and travel up until this past year or so where now he only works a couple days a week (hairstylist) and is home.
This also gives me a tiny glimmer of hope that Clyde and Mr. M may have simply found new homes...some animal lover saw them and took them in to keep them safe. *sigh* Clyde maybe...Mr M, I just don't think so. Anyway...that is the excitement of the day. I have a conference call in about 25 minutes and then I am going to go lay on the couch and wait for my body to stop torturing me.
