Lesson: ALWAYS Microchip and keep tags on your dog!

I'm thinking that psycho pug has found a new walking buddy. Now that you know where he lives, why not volunteer to walk him with psycho every now and then?

We had a similar situation in our neighborhood. This poor dog never got walked. One day, when the family was out in the yard, I asked them if I could walk their dog. They were surprised, but agreed. We had a good 'ole time. I think I asked another time or 2 with the same results. Then one day, I saw them taking him for a walk. Seems they realized that puppers need to get out and explore. Maybe it just took someone else taking interest for them to figure it out.

Thank you for making the effort, for taking the time, and getting Ralphie home once again.

I also was thinking you could ask if he can walk with you and Psycho Pup! Maybe some of the manners will wear off

So good he had a chip! Maybe they walk him, but earlier in the morning than you are up? Looks like a happy, healthy pup, glad he was chipped so easily found his way home!

Good for you Alyssa for helping Ralphie! My dogs are both chipped.

Yay! I am glad you helped Ralphie find his way home! Another important lesson, please make sure you update microchip information when you move, switch numbers, etc. I have ran I to so many strays with chips but outdated information!

You just reminded me of what I need to do for Mikey! I guess I am a little hypocritical LOL. But he DOES have two tags as well as a chip, which I will soon update.

That's an idea, maybe I can get Ralphie out of the house a little. I do feel bad for him, and if someone had just recognized him I could have walked him right home. and no problem, I can't understand how people could leave a lost pup outside.

Good reminder! And great for helping him get back home. I've definitely encountered this in my neighborhood. If they had a tag on w/at least a phone number, I could have called and they would have been home in a matter of minutes. My dog and cat both are chipped and have tags and I always keep an extra collar w/tag on hand especially for my little feline. I use the quick release collars on her as she likes to slink through the bushes.
