Lookie what I found!

[Glacier]

I Glacier, do you have a sense of how young or old he might be? He's beautiful!

He's young, maybe 2. His teeth are perfect, shiny white, no wear and he plays like a puppy. He does not like it when Tehya isn't there. He let out some very sad howls when she came in the house last night.

I missed a call this morning, but it was a blocked ID and no message left. So I don't know if it was a telemarketer or his owner!

You're breaking up a budding romance by taking Tehya inside at night!

NUTZ on missing the call.
When you call the number on StrayPup's tag ~
does it ANSWER with a recorder or voice mail?

Are you able to Leave a Message on his number?
Is the number a local Land-Line number, or a cell phone exchange?

Maybe we otta start working on a Name?

Did you ask your Vet if she/he has met the dog & owners yet. Maybe
they would know him.

I called both local clinics and left his description.

[shais_mom]

I've never found anything like that in the ditch either!
I can certainly understand the frustration - there's been a time or 2 I have actually left a cart with stuff in it b/c it is so insane @ Walmart - and that was at 11pm at nite!!

Tehya spent the first night outside with him, but I felt kinda mean leaving her out there. She'd never spent a night out before. If the stray is still here when Stuart leaves, I'll get out another crate and maybe try him inside too. He settled down after a few minutes last night and was deleriously happy to see her again this morning. Pacer is in with them today too.

I've left a couple messages on the number on his tag. It's answered by a machine, but with an automated message--computerized voice, no info about the owners. It's a land line and a local number. Cell phone service is horrible up here!

He answers to Buddy. I've tried a few hundred other names and Buddy is the only thing he responds to at all!

Good to know Tehya can handle an overnight "outie" if she needs to!
StrayPup must appreciate a Good Lookin Babe when he sees one!

It's a land line and a local number.

Do you have any REALLY GOOD Buddies who work for the Phone Company?
They're not supposed to do it ... but a LOT of *whimperin* & *whinin* might
get a Customer Service Rep to slip with the number's Name or Address.

You might also ask the Vet Clinics if they could do a "search by number" of their customer records.

Oh Phred, if the owners are not interested in retrieving the pup, isn't he better off with Tehya? Er, I MEANT Tamara and Stu, really I DID!

*IF* being the important word in that statement!

Luckily for StrayPup/Buddy, his Finder is willing to go the distance to contact his Owner
to verify, one way or the other, *IF* they want StrayPup back.

Until the Owner checks in; there's no way to tell if they even KNOW StrayPup/Buddy isn't where
he was supposed to be.
The Owner could be on vacation, injured or sick in the hospital, or out of town ...
and Buddy is/was "supposed to be" in someone's care & custody - or possibly self-feeding at Home.

The Owner may not know his answering machine is full of "Ive found your DOG messages".

"GOOD ON Ya", Tamara - for doing your best to find StrayPup/Buddy's real owner.

let's try putting YOURSELF in the 'parents' shoes....
what would you want the finder to do?
We know that Tamara and Stuart would be a fabulous home for him but He HAS a home - that has been found...
and Tamara's the best!

[K9karen]

Aw, Ratz! As glad as I am that *Buddy* is back with his owners, I'm kinda disappointed and sad for Tehya I'll bet he's never had so much fun! Maybe you can arrange play dates for Tehya. Her 1st boyfriend...

I'm with Phred...ER??? Yikes! Everything OK???? Very worried!

I hope it was a telemarketer. If it had been Buddy's person I am thinking he or she might have attempted to leave some sort of message, unless it was a bad connection. I'm still hoping the owner who let such a gorgeous fellow slip out doesn't call back and Buddy becomes one of the Glacier family. He's better off with Tehya. Wooooo, Buddy, and welcome to PT even if you're a short-term guest!
