Dad & Brother saved a lady and dog - REUNITED!

[Kfamr]

We've been calling around all morning trying to get some information about this lady and her dog.

The hospital can't give us anything because we don't even know the lady's name. They did last night, but it's a whole different crew this morning. Mom's trying to fire department right now.

Vince slept on my bed all night - took up the whole thing but I didn't want to bother him. He's been playing this morning and acting like he lives here.

He's laying next to me right now. I want to feed him but I don't know WHAT to feed him. What if he has allergies or something? What if he gets incredibly sick from whatever I feed him?

Anyways.. going to go talk to my mom and see if she's gotten anywhere.


Here's a few pictures from this morning.

What a sweet baby Vince is! Your dad and brother are heros!!! What great thing they did.

Was Vince swimming with her?

I hope she's okay and recovers quickly.

[Kfamr]

Yes, according to my dad Vince was swimming circles around her. He swam to shore after they got her in the boat. If he hadn't been there she probably would have been far worse... I bet he was helping to keep her up.


We still cannot find anything out. We've called about 20 different places, spoke with 10 different people and 10 different recordings. Everyone keeps directing us to someone else and that someone has no clue what we're talking about.


I forgot, today I've got to watch my sister's boyfriend's parent's dog, Moose, today.

Kay I would feed him whatever just to get some food in him he must be hungry.

[Kfamr]

I just fed him a sample I had of California Natural Chicken Meal & Rice.

He gobbled it up and is now drinking a bowl of water. He wouldn't take any kibble last night. I gave him a handful and he didn't want it.

[caseysmom]

That food shouldn't bother him Casey does fine with that and she has a sensitive tummy. He was probably out of sorts last night now he probably feels comfortable. So is the lady coherent or is she in a coma?

[Kfamr]

We don't know. We can't get ahold of anyone like I said.

That's a wonderful story! Your dad and brother have done a wonderful thing by saving these two. As a near-drowning victim, i know how terrifying it is. And what a miracle it feels like when to be rescued. Then, to care for the dog too, well you all should be applauded!!!

[Cataholic]

WOW! Great job to your brother and dad, and to you for taking care of Vince. I sure hope someone contacts you soon. Do you think you could call any of the numbers she has stored in her cell phone, or recently dialed ones, to get any more info?

[lizbud]

Your Dad & brother are life savers for sure. I wonder if the hospital
has told the woman about where Vince is now.When the lady recovers,
I'm sure she would be worried about her dog. I hope your Mom can explain
things to the hospital & relay a message for you.

My neighbor works for the news station - she has a news crew coming over at 4 today.

[Kfamr]

We still have no information on her health, however we found out that she is from Hondouras. The cell phone's area code lead to there. My mother
& sister are out shopping for a charger for the phone to see if we can call someone she knows.

The police are no help - all they asked is if we wanted them to come and pick up her "property" (the cell & "Vince.") We told them no as we'd rather the dog stay here now that's he's comfortable rather than being tossed around.


We don't even know if Vince is his real name - my dad told me that he wasn't sure, the lady may have been saying Vizsla. He doesn't pay much attention to it, but he does come whenever I talk to him. He knows English - sit, lay, shake is what I've gotten out of him.

We don't mind caring for Vince - we just want to get in touch with this lady and make sure she is okay.

[Toby's my baby]

It is so great that you guys are so helpful, and that your dad and brother were in the right place at the right time.

Thoughts and prayers comming everyones way, I hope you can find some info out about the owner! It's good to know "Vince" is in good hands.

[Ginger's Mom]

Oh Kay, you and your family really are heroes. How nice of you to take such good care of Vince. I can't think of anyone I would rather have caring for my baby.

Kay, I know they probably aren't sharing a lot of information with you, but have the police tried to trace the cell phone? They can find out who the lady is and where she lives through the cell phone company (if it isn't a pay as you go phone). Was there a car that was left at the dog beach overnight? I just can't believe they aren't interested in helping to identify the woman. Oh well, I wish I lived down there so I could see all of you on the news. Pet Talk Heroes!!!

ETA: Oh I forgot to say I love the picture of all four of them on the couch. How cute!
