DOGGIE!
The Dog! The Dog! The Dog that vanished from our house three months ago - is returned!
My God! What are the statistics? A dog lost three months ago actually returning to his former place of residence?
Perhaps I should start from the beginning.
This afternoon, we got a call. A man had found a dog matching Daxie's description, and called the number listed on the tags. Naturally, we were somewhat skectical - still, we went to check it out (I stayed behind to keep an eye on dinner.)
They brought back our dog. Apparently, he was quite tired and dirty when they found him, and he had to be given an extensive bath. Surprisingly, he's really rather fat - much thicker and bulkier then before. His fur's significantly lighter - he's been spending a lot of time in the sun. Current theory is that he's been cooped up in someone's backyard, being fed table scraps - he managed to get out, and was returned to us.
He's really very well behaved. Quiet, almost limp - he's very tired, I think. Isn't moving very much. I'm glad to see that he's okay.
He was always like a big puppy before. I think he's grown up somewhat. Time will tell if it's permanant.
