Judy, Thank Goodness Gracie WAS in the way! So glad to hear she is safely home! : ) It is amazing to hear why these guys get home. A couple who owned a male and spayed female BMDs from us came home to find both stolen. The female was found at the SPCA almost immediately, she had been turned in by a person who had found her running down the street wide eyed with fear. She had obviously escaped the thief. The male stayed missing over a week. They put a BIG reward in the paper, posters up etc. Got a call from a woman at a Chinese restaurant that her son had their dog. They rushed down and sure enough, there he was. The lady collected the money then said, "My son wanted to keep him but I think he needs to go to the vet," She pointed to his tummy area. They turned him over and she pointed at his umbilical hernia. he had picked up fleas and had scrached it up and had a rash around the area. "She said, He has tumor!" They saw it and laughed with relief, "that is his belly button hernia!" She then offered, "How much do you want for him?" (Holding their reward money!) They declined, and left. So, he was saved by his "tumor!"
You stay hoime now Gracie! Berner hugs, Mary Jeff & Mary Chapdelaine SnoBear Berners N. California, USA http://snobear.freeyellow.com "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody." Bill Cosby
