Default but..it's a dog
look, i know this board is populated by animal lovers-- i have a dog and a cat myself, and have taken in several strays over the years that were dumped by uncaring humans. but this is ridiculous. story i just heard on the local news here--but about a woman in san antonio, tx. her 10 year old bulldog disappeared, and a $500 reward did no good. so she offered up her car, a just paid-off, customized mustang.

she got her dog back, some guy got her car. so now, no car, depending on her family to get her around. that's just crazy.

See, I dunno Deb... my dogs are like part of my family. Even though I only have one kid, sometimes I feel like I have three!

One should not have to be rewarded for performing a simple act of decency...returning a pet to it's home is just simple decency that you would hope might be reciprocated if the shoe were on the other foot...
