Our house was the dog return service too, but after 4 times for one dog, then I call AC because the owners don't care about the safety of their animals. I have returned so many dogs to owners, that I can't even give you a number. I did have one JRT that showed up here, with a collar and tags, but the tags were wrong, so I had to do alittle reserch to locate the owners, but when I did she was crying when she got here, he had been missing for 2 weeks, they lived over 10 miles away, so he travel a good distance!

Over the years there have been many. The latest was just last Thursday.

It was raining buckets as I got in my pickup to go to work, with a cat in a carrier heading to the vets. I turned around to close the door and came face to face (literally!) with a huge gray Great Dane!

What to do? Can't fit him in the truck, can't let him in the house with my 3 dogs.

Fortunately he had a collar with a tag. I called the phone number and left a message. Called again 10 minutes later, only to find I had called the wrong number . The address is only 3 houses away. So I tried calling again with a slightly different number. Got a machine. Finally put the dog in my yard, went to work and called again from work. Finally got my neighbor on the line and told him to get his dog.

The dog's name is Huckleberry. He is a real sweetheart. I can't believe I didn't know he lives there!

We've rescued a few dogs and reunited with their owners.
One dog that we kept overnight was Jack. He was running around our neighborhood for about a month and he started getting thin so my mom decidied to take him in.He had no collor,no tags what so ever. He was such a sweet dog, i really wish we could have kept him. We took him to a wonderful rescue and he was adopted out.

What a GORGEOUS dog!! if nust´ve been hard letting go

Quite a few years ago my mom, brother and I found a chow chow. Luckily we found it when we did because it was wandering right through traffic on a busy road and almost got hit by several cars. There were police men across the road(that weren't doing anything) but, of course, they could care less about a dog that's about to get killed. So we eventually got the dog to come to us and then we tied it to a tree and stood with it and not to long after a young boy and his mother came and retrieved it. It feels great helping someone out.

I'm always bringing home strays. A year ago or so I brought home a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever puppy. I was out walking him around to see if his owners would spot him the next day, and they spotted him. Turns out he only lived 2 bays away.

I found a Border Collie once. He was super cool. He was 10 years old, still in flyball, and having one of the fastest times on the team. It was funny; if you threw him a ball, he'd throw it back at you. I've always wondered how I could teach one of my two to do that.

The last dog I found (Corgi x Shepherd) was hit by a car. The humane society told us if we couldn't keep her, to let her back out onto the street. We stuck with her, and found her owner the next day. A kind old lady who tried paying me $150 for finding her dog, Ebony.

Here's two pictures of Ebony.

It was very hard. He had a awesome temperment, and he was just gorgeous.And he got along with Kodie & Lucy so well, he would have fit in perfectly with us. My parents wanted to keep him but 3 dogs is too much for us. It was hard for me to hold back tears when we dropped him off.
