    Found a Puppy today

    Today we took Deogee and Tank to Petsmart to stock up on food for all the pups and when we got home Deogee kept pulling on the leash and was whining trying to get over by the neighbors house. I just pulled him back and put him in the house. I went back out to the car to get the rest of our stuff when I noticed the neighbor standing on his porch turning his car alarm on and off. I took a closer look and saw a scared puppy under his truck, he was trying to scare him out with the alarm. I sat down and called to him, after a few minutes (when the guy finally stopped pushing the car alarm) he slowly came out and walked up to me.

    I brought him into the house and gave him some food and water. He seems very well taken care of and very healthy, but he was only wearing a collar with no tags. After he ate we walked him up and down the block and through the surrounding neighborhoods but no one has ever seen him before. I am posting fliers tomorrow and going to get him into the vet on Monday.

    He has no manners at all but he is wonderful with the kids, cat and other dogs ..... he is SO sweet. We are calling him Jake right now, he is very smart, he learned to sit very fast and already comes to his name. We are thinking he is around 5 or 6 months old and he is a very big guy. I'm thinking he might be Lab/shepherd Mix, I'm not really sure, I'm going to post a few pics and let me know what you all think .

    He does look well looked after, so hopefully a family is looking for him.

    Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our life whole

    Thank You for doing the Right Thing...and taking him in...
    At least you can take him to the Vet on Mon....They can Scan him and see if hes' Micro-Chipped.....If he was adopted from a Pound,He will be chipped with either the pounds name & Address or the Adoptive parents...

    Good Luck,Keep us posted!!!!

    Nothing yet . We took him into the vet and had him updated on his shots and got his rabies shot. Dr looked him over and said that he looks very healthy and around 6 months. He did a scan for a microchip and didn't find anything . We are going to keep looking and if we haven't heard anything by next Friday (May 6th) we are going to place him up for adoption and start looking for a new home for him.

    He is such a sweety and a total goof-ball, he gets along with everyone, furry or not, and LOVES kids. He likes to play ball and be right where you are. He is potty trained and knows how to sit and shake. We are beginning to think maybe he was dumped but we can't figure out why .

    Good for you guys. He'll be ready for some lucky person.

    The only reason dogs are dumped is because some PEOPLE are
    stupid & don't know a good thing when they see it.

    Best of luck with Jake.

    Jake is still with us .... no word from his owners . We are putting him up for adoption now and have had a few people interested but no real takers.

    He is a really sweet boy and the only thing he wants is to be loved, the closer he is to you the better .... hopefully we can find someone that wants him.

    Poor guy, I feel so bad for him ..... I just don't understand why people dump there pets there are so many differant options out there for people who need to rehome them.

    What a gorgeous find! The shine off Jakes fur is blinding! Sadly though so many companion animals are dumped as we all know. Does your local newspaper run free "Found" ads? Maybe a vague description of him in the paper, and his owners might see it. I leave out complete details, and word ads along the lines of "Found black dog...rightful owner describe other details". He's such a good looking guy.

    We definitely ask for references on all the pups we adopt out ... now a days you can't be to careful. They have to fill out an application complete with personal references, vet references and many other questions that help us determine if that family is right for that dog. We try our best to make sure everybody is happy and perfectly matched.
