    Willie is adorable. I cannot believe he wasn't micro-chipped, and that no one responded to any of the flyers or inquiries that you made in attempting to find his home. That is so sad. How old is he?

    I am surprised too about Willie. He looks as though he is in good shape, so someone was taking care of him. Such a sweet face.

    I have just started following some of your threads and have to say that I am hooked. I loved these videos and was smiling big at the one with the puppies. Poor Grace - no rest for the weary. Her little ones sure do love her. I am guessing that they are at the shelter now and hope that they don't have to wait too long for loving humans to come along and fill the void in their little lives since they had to leave their mommy. I am laughing at "what have you done?" LOL! Haven't we all "been there, done that!"

    And I hope I don't find them. If I do they won't get him back without a fight. People who are so irresponsible as to allow their pet to wander around a swamp, more than a mile from the nearest house at 5:00 am, do not deserve to have pets.

    Not sure how you are aware that it was owner neglect that caused him to get out. There are so many different things that could have happened. How old did your vet say they think he is?

    Not sure how you know that he wasn't microchipped. Not sure how you know that I passed out all those flyers and made all those inquiries into making an attempt to find his home. Not sure how you found out about the trip to see my vet. How do you do it? How do you manage to know all those things?

    If whoever his owners are had lost a [human] child the way Willie became lost (however that was) would have a difficult time explaining themselves.

    I do not know if you are well-intentioned or just a busy body. If you are well-intentioned then I shall tell you about the efforts I have made in finding his owners.

    You are right I assumed you did them. I assume any responsible pet owner would try to reunite a well cared for dog (as Willie appears to be) with his owner. I also assume any responsible pet owner would take any new pet to the vet to make sure there are no physical needs that need to be cared for that aren't easily identifiable. I am sorry if I offended you by making those assumptions. You on the other hand were just plain rude with your busy-body/buzz off comments.
    I am surprised that you haven't already shared your efforts with us already. Do not feel the need to do so on my account.
    If whoever his owners are had lost a [human] child the way Willie became lost (however that was) would have a difficult time explaining themselves.
    You seem to indicate you do not know he was lost. How do you know they need to explain themselves? Someone else may have been caring for their dog while they are away perhaps.

    Well, Dan, at least you are doing your name calling publicy and not via PMs.

    Most folks here do post what they are doing to find owners, as a happy reunion is a good story.

    People move to another town - dog runs away - they go nuts trying to find him...many reasons why Willie could have shown up in the middle of nowhere. There are many stories sprinkled through the media about missing animals who turned up in the most unusual of ways.

    And you are doing what you do so well -- picking a fight in public.

    Why all the fuss over Willie and not Grace? You find the time to reprimand me for my comments to another, but you cannot find time to praise me for rescuing Grace and her six puppies.
