You know it's tough when bacon doesn't work as bait. He must not really want to be retrieved.

LOL at your post. According to the headline, Kevin Bacon is a pet psychic.

Awe. It must be hard for the owner. At least Murphy’s been seen several times. I hope they can get him home, soon.

As a kid, I wanted a pet psychic but my parents made me settle for a dog instead. :=)

Speaking of psychics:

Did you hear about the midget fortuneteller who escaped from jail?

Newspaper headlines said: Small medium at large.

Hopefully he does get home safe. I had a couple of large dogs that heard the call of the wild and never came home.

Was the bacon “Beggin’ Strips”?
Some dogs are too proud to beg.

“LOL at your post. According to the headline, Kevin Bacon is a pet psychic.”

He trained at the Psychic Friends Network to get his current gig as a pet psychic. He’s currently working with Ace Ventura to locating lost pets of Hollywood stars!

Murphy, an elusive golden retriever

My buddy just drove down from the midwest to hide from the snow and brought Murphy the Golden Retriever with him. You might notice I did not include the word "elusive". He is very easy to find, he's about 4 inches from the slobber covered toy that was just dropped in your lap.

I'd recommend opening a truck door, and calling out "Murphy! Want to go for a ride?"

We have one who puts slobbery toys in our laps, too. He also thinks we are his personal napkins. After he gets a drink he puts his face on us to wipe of the excess water. He is rather a pea brain, but provides some goofy entertainment and surprisingly is a good watch dog, although I am sure his bark is worse than his bite.
