Doggy Dundee

Doggy Dundee took a break from building this site to go play at the Ashland Oregon Dog Park this morning. We met Chase’s neighbor, Millie there.

That was quite a surprise because Millie’s been Chase’s buddy for several years, but Millie has never before been to the dog park till now. Wasn’t she a happy doggy – Today was Millie’s second visit, and she was enjoying herding the doggies, and WOW was Millie ecstatic when Chase ran in!

It was nice for Doggy Dundee to be out of the house and away from the computer, too. Great being in the wind and racing across the 2 acres of grassy (enclosed) field. Chase even got a chance to go swimming in the creek, too.

It’s a lot harder to build a website than it is to track down a lost dog – sad to say…

When you’re walking, don’t keep walking past a lost dog you may see.

Do what you can to save a dog so they don’t become a homeless dog.

During our early morning walks, Chase and I often see dogs wandering alone. There’s been lots of times when we’ve seen LOTS of other people and cars see these same dogs, too, but those other people don’t stop. We couldn’t understand that. If a baby were wandering down the street there’d be lots of concern.

Doggie Dundee doesn’t ignore them, but instead decided to always “Be Prepared” with extra treats in a pocket and a spare leash.  Not all dogs trust you at first, but when we get our ego out of the way and are totally into the dog’s spirit, most of the time even the most skittish allow us to cajole them close enought to get a leash on ‘em. Then it’s Chase and her new friend “fun runnin’ me home” so we can call the owner and let them know their dog’s found.

How many dogs have you let pass? You could make a difference in that dog’s life.  It’s not fun to be lost and alone…
