New Home for Boots

[Cinder & Smoke]

My neighbor called at 11a this morning: "Boots is GONE!" ...

Her hated daughter in law's cousin has been wanting a dog
for her 9 yo son and by chance, Boots is available.

They came over, fell in love with him, ...
And before you know it, off he goes.

If he "left" that quickly -
He HASN'T gone all that far!

Have a lil "chat" with the Boots' "former owner" and FIND OUT where he is!

Get their name & phone number - if the neighbor asks WHY? - just
TELL 'Em that you'd like to check up and say hello to the lil Guy.

Then CALL the New Owner and introduce yourself -
TELL 'Em you shaved the lil Guy's life and feel a bit connected ... and
would like to be allowed to have an occasional visit.

I think if you play your cards right -
New Folks would be crazy not to welcome your interest.

And SHAME on your Neighbor!

Now - start finding out WHERE he is!!

I agree with Cinder and Smoke, maybe you could get a hold of the new owners and let them know how attached you are and either have visits, or let them know if things dont workout that you have a friend who was already waiting for him, that way if he doesnt workout then they can give him to you where you will place him with Dr, G, and he wont even have a chance to go to a worse home or be bounced around,
this whole story is soo sad, Boots is sooo darling and handsome and deserves a terrific forever family!!

Karen, you did so many great things for Boots, and it's wonderful that you set up a loving home for him. Have you told your nieghbor this? It sounds as if the new "owners" will give up in no time at all, you should absolutely call them and explain. Boots might as well be your dog, with what you've done for him.
