Temporary house guest...
On my rare trip to McDonalds I found a lost dog weaving through the cars in the drive thru. When I asked the woman in the window she said the dog had been out there all day so I scooped her up. She's a little porker with well trimmed nails and knows basic commands so I'm working on finding her family. Until then, Harvey has a feisty little friend.
Tomorrow I'm taking her to get checked out and see if she's chipped.

- Tell us about yourself: DS and Mal foster newly approved aug'12 by NADSR and ABMCR. high-functioning Autistic in nyc/hamptons in my 60's. Rescued the smartest dog i had ever seen off nyc street in 2000. Tracedog's intelligence exceeded by multiples my judgement that day. My first [and only as of 10/2012] dog turned out to be a DS, perhaps with a touch of something else, but attention to detail, behavioral traits, and physical habits, movement, and skill identical to DS. But MUCH more intellectual ability. supremely confident in all settings, fearless, very outgoing and social with people and friendly with dogs. Seldom apart in over 12 years, Trace Dog was the most important relationship of my adult life; he was my partner. He died july17,2012. i am dying without him. www.youtube.com/tracesobaka www.dogster.com/dogs/637612

great pics of Harvey - particularly the 3rd one with that great expression on his face as he looks back.

Re: Temporary house guest...
Thanks, yea it was a little sketchy at first but they're getting along for the most part. Harvey has been his usual self pushing her buttons. Earlier she was sleeping and he kept lightly tapping her ear and acting surprised when she woke up. He kept that going for about 15 minutes until she caught him and I thought I had a banshee get released in the living room by the sound she made (weirdest bark/growl I've ever heard). Now he seems to find it funny to keep annoying her... that's my dog, pushing everyone's buttons... we were made for each other haha
She's a lazy little butterball though. I throw the ball and she'll wait till Harvey brings it back then steals it from him.

- Tell us about yourself: Artist, Mother, Equestrienne, Educator, Homesteader wannabe, dog-lover. Not counting my current DS, I have had 2 GSDs and 3 rescued mixed-breeds. All of these dogs were rescues, except for my childhood GSD, who was a gift from my parents when I was 7, and my current DS who I bartered artwork for from the breeder. Maiyou, one of my current dogs, is a Pitbull/New Guinea Singing Dog of 13 years old. Still very active and "Young" in nature. I now also have a DS named Mokume, (pronounced "Moh-koo-meh") or "Moko" for short. Newest member of our pack is Freyja, a random mixed hound I rescued during a horseback trip in the middle of a state forest.

Re: Temporary house guest...
Good on you for stepping in and doing something to help! So many people would (and apparently already did,) just go about their day and either not even notice or choose not to get involved with just one more random dog.
You'll have to keep us updated on your progress with finding her folks!

Re: Temporary house guest...
The sad part was the car in front of me had a "Lowndes county humane society" stick on the bumper but didn't do anything about her when she was walking around in front of them. Turns out she wasn't chipped but I found a family that has a bigger place and will keep her till they find her family.

Re: Temporary house guest...
Thanks for stepping up! Are you posting pictures at the local vets? And I assume the shelter knows you are fostering her?
One of my 'pups' was found at a McDonalds drive through once. She did have a chip. The good samaritan who picked her up never found any 'lost' posters for her, but the chip lead to me, and then the owner who was gracious enough to let the samaritan (who had totally fallen in love!) have the dog. Turns out, the dog had gotten out of the yard few dats earlier, after a tornado blew the privacy fence over. Happy endings happen. I hope your foster finds her way home soon.
