I'm so glad you found this baby in time to help her. If it were me, though, I would put up a flier at the truck stop about her. Someone may be frantically searching for this lost baby.

One way or another, it definitely sounds like the angels guided you to her.

No one is looking for her. We talked to all the clerks in the store before we even started trying to catch her. They all said the same thing, that she had been there since the day before, frantically searching for her owner, and that no one had called or asked about her. My husband left his business card with the manager and the clerks, and told them to have her owner call us if they called looking for her. No one has called, either us or the truck stop, and it's been four days now.

Today she taught herself to use the dog door. I was going to wait until everyone left the house after Christmas dinner to start teaching her, since it was a bit chaotic. She decided, however, to see where the other dogs were going for herself. Now, our dog door is a bit tricky. For one thing, it's a solid piece of metal, not soft rubber, so it takes a bit of getting used to, even for a dog door pro. Secondly, the dog door from the house opens into a big dog house which sits up against the house. The dogs then have to go through the dog house and out another metal dog door into the yard. The dog house is, of course, pitch black inside. She figured all this out on her own in about two minutes. SMART dog.

She got along splendidly with all our Christmas guests, politely crawling into their laps one by one, and rolling over to get her belly rubbed. She was the STAR of the holiday, no doubt.

I took pictures on my regular camera, I just need to get them developed and put on a disk, then I'll post them.

I am so glad that you found Karma. It makes me cry to think that someone just left her all alone. Thanks for being her angel. Merry Christmas to you and Karma
