When I was about 7 yrs old, my mom looked out the window and saw that a Lhasa Apso had wondered into our backyard (it was during the winter). She immediately went outside, took the puppy in, warmed him up and fed him. Upon looking at the collar, she saw his name (Reggie) and a phone number, which was long distance (over an hour away from us). She called and asked "Are you missing your dog?" Turns out - Reggie was a very expensive dog who had been stolen over SIX MONTHS PREVIOUSLY. The woman was elderly and immediately broke down in tears. Long story short - the groomer had actually stolen the dog and sold it to someone who we believe lived in our neighborhood. It could never be proven so there were no official charges against them, and the husband came and picked up her dog. About six weeks later the man called us back that the wife had passed away and he was going into a retirement home, and offered Reggie to my mom free of charge because he knew how attached we had become in the few days that we had him, and he thought Reggie needed to be in a home with children. Reggie lived with us for the next 11 years, but the moral of the story is....
the woman passed away with her Reggie at her side - he was returned to her after 6 months. So never give up hope!!! Someone with a good heart in the right place will do the right thing... |
Thank you for that positive story... To much negativity has found its way into this thread
I will never give up, I just hope that if it does take 6 months that he would not have forgotten me
