Checkers Reunited with His Family
I just wanted to give you a quick note of thanks. Today I decided to run into PetSmart to get some BilJac dog food and saw the dogs outside. I stopped to talk to the guy sitting out there about my beagle we'd just adopted last month when, before I could finish my train of thought, I recognized our long-lost dog. Checkers (Bull Dozer)was right there!! One night last October, he kept scratching, so I took off his collar because the tags where keeping me up. Somehow, the next morning, he got out without us knowing. He always stayed right beside any of us when we were outside. We searched, posted and prayed to find him. My son, whose dog he is, was devastated, swearing never to love another dog again. I cannot express enough how grateful we are, that the woman who found him took good care of him, and then surrendered him. We live far from Slaughter Lane, and just on a spur of the moment decided to go in. Thank you so much for being there today. My son was overjoyed to see him again. And so was Checkers, he couldn't stop jumping and running back and forth to him. It was one of the sweetest things I've seen in a long time. Things seem to be back to normal, Checkers is asleep on his bed, like old times. Over and over, thank you!!!
