Charles Savoie---currently my only dog arrived as a stray in my driveway December 28, 2007.  I took photos and sent to area city animal shelters, took out ad in paper, posted notices on phone poles.  No one claimed her.  Fully grown 13.2 pound Cairn Terrier.  Unbelievably, she jumped and climbed over 5 foot fence twice.  After second incident, I barricaded gate.  It's the only section facing the street.  She now stays in yard.  That was why someone did not want her back---too much stress worrying about her going over fence.  I named her Miss Capa, but all dogs at my residence historically have had secondary names so hers is "Little Checcha."  This dog invited herself to share bed with me.  In winter she plows under covers. The Great Deputy Dog's secondary name?  He as the greatest had several including "Dabogens Ta."  Silly maybe, but they are too unique to not have unique names.  Sadie's other name was Miss Peaslee.  Then there was Frosty ("Frosta") a Samoyed of whom a song says "Now he comes to me from the North country---snow white hair, beauty beyond compare."  He made the Polar Star diamond look like garbage.

It's amazing how people will abandon their animals for such simple reasons, instead of working to find a solution. I mean, most people don't just give up their kids because they don't behave, right? It makes me sad when people don't think animals are worth the time and trouble. Your dog is lucky to have you.
