    Found this guy this morning.....UPDATE-GOOD ONE!

    He was in front of the office when my coworker got here this morning.   He's got a tag on with his name, Diego and his address and phone number.  I sent one of our guys by the house (right down the street from our office) and he left a note on the door.  I've called the phone number several times but get no answer and there's no answering machine.  He doesn't have a vet tag.  Hopefully his owner will call when they see the note.  He looks like a long haired Chi to me.  Sweet little guy.  Hopefully he'll be reunited later with his owners.

    Good thing you keep dog supplies at the office, Jackie.

    Now if you could only figure out where the "lady who helps lost dogs" signs are and remove them. Stick out tongue

    Since we both bring dogs to work, there is never a shortage of dog supplies around here.  I was a bit ticked that he was put in Gabby's crate with all her toys, etc. This dog doesn't look sick but Gabby just got her third parvo booster less than two weeks ago so I will be sterilizing all the stuff in her crate, just to be on the safe side. 

    I do feel like a lost dog magnet sometimes.  At least this dog seems to have an owner and hopefully they can have a happy reunion later today.  Considering the fact that this city has an estimated 100,000 stray dogs on the streets, I feel lucky that this guy has an owner who bothered to put some ID on him.

    Awwwwwwww... he's so cute. Hopefully his owners will come for him soon.

    Awww Jackie, he's a cutie. I would sterilize the crate too, just in case. Hope his owner comes soon.

    Yup...CUTE!!! 

    It's a little early to be getting Gabby a playmate so soon isn't it?  hehe

    LOL - Gabby would love having another playmate. I'm sure you'll hear from the owner soon though. He looks very well cared for and very adorable.

    So adorable I almost can't stand it. I have to admit, my first thought was, "RASCAL NEEDS ONE!" I'm glad he seems to have a happy home somewhere. Boy, think there's a Lost Dog Craigslist somewhere that all these dogs are posting on? "If lost, look for JackieG..." :)

    Quick update as I am leaving soon for a meeting out of the office. 

    I went by the house at lunch but no one answered the door.  I talked to a neighbor who said she saw a U Haul at this house Monday or Tuesday.  She thinks they abandoned him but I'm not sure I agree.  He did have a collar and tag and is neutered.  The yard had stuff in it that most people wouldn't leave behind.  The back gate was standing open..... Hoping he just escaped.  

    I called the local AC to have him picked up and they got him a little while ago. :(  I hated to do it but had no choice.  I left another note on the door telling them where he was.  I'll try calling the number on the tag again this evening.  I also contacted Chi rescue here and if he's not claimed hopefully they can pull him.  He wasn't in the best of shape and looked as though he's kept outside. That's pretty common around here.  He was crawling with fleas and very dirty.  I gave him a Capstar and a bath this morning. 

    Send some good vibes for little Diego. I'll keep calling AC and the phone on the tag and keep you updated.  Lets all hope it's a good update.

    You are such an angel Jackie and you did all that you could and way more than many people would do. Hopefully the neighbor was wrong but if not, maybe the rescue can get him out.

    Awww, he's aDORable, Jackie.  Thank you for, yet again, doing the right thing for Diego.

    • Gold Top Dog

    Poor little guy.

    I was going to say I hope his owners are looking for him... but by your description of his condition he'd probably be better off if they didn't. I hope the Chi rescue is able to pull him & get him into a good home!

    I still haven't gotten an answer on the phone listed on the tag.  I've contacted two different Chi rescues but haven't heard back yet.  I check with the AC tomorrow morning.

    I spoke to the woman at AC this morning and no one claimed him yet.  She also told me his five days till euth includes the long holiday weekend. grrrrr  They aren't open over the weekend so that gives little time for his owner to claim him if they are out of town, sick or whatever. 

    I spoke to a woman in Chi rescue this morning. Not either of the ones I have been trying to contact. :(  They still haven't responded. I sent her pic's and she doesn't think he's a Chi but a Pap.  That was actually my first thought when I saw him but for some reason I settled on long haired Chi.  Maybe because they are much more common around here. She did tell me she's going by to see him today and that she has great contacts with Pap rescue. :)  Annie has also contacted Pap rescue for me.  Dog people are really the best. ((Annie))  I'll update as I can.  Thanks for any and all good vibes for Diego.
