I was picking up a friend yesterday to go to a quilting class & this little dog was on the side of the road. My friend says she thinks she saw when she was dropped off on the side of the road. She has had puppies very recently. I decided if she was still there when I dropped her off at home again later that afternoon I would pick her up. Sure enough sweet thing she was on the side of the road watching as tho she were looking for someone. I stopped, she came over, and her she is!!! I did look around where I found her for puppies but found or heard none. She did not seem anxious or anything since I picked her up. She is getting along GREAT with my 2 cats and my other dog. Don't know yet if we will keep her or find her a good home. She looks like a mix of yellow lab & bassett hound in a way. She LOVES LOVES LOVES belly rubs & you can hear her tail banging everywhere as it is in constant WAG.

What a cutie! She was waiting for YOU!
Too bad no puppies were found.
I sure hope they aren't found later....if you know what I mean.
I just don't understand HOW people can do that to an animal!

She sure is a cutie! We had a furry baby like her-- happy! All you had to do was just look at her and she was doing the tahitian fast dance!
Have you tried to see if she has the ID chip? All veterinarians should have one, and if one shows up there's an 800 number to call. My parents lost two of their dogs and they were gone from Saturday morning to Wednesday am.
Turns out someone picked them up Saturday morning about a mile away then drove them to their home two hours away. Didn't bother to call the 800 # on their collar until Wednesday morning.
I hope that this little cutie has an ID chip. Either way, she sure is blessed you stopped for her. Lots of hugs and kisses to her and Little Girl! (and the cats if they want any...)

thanks for the info about the chip. would not have thought of that right away as little girl does not have one, but after today she will. This one looks like you can see where a collar once was. I am gonna give her a few days to settle in and will take her to the vet to check for chip & tested for heart worms. If she is good I will start her on heart worm meds.

Myrna, what a sweetheart you are. No doubt you saved "Snowy" from getting run over. Poor baby, I hope the people who dumped her rot in H-E-Double Toothpicks!
Obviously you were at the right place at the right time! Sounds like my tagline!
