OH DEAR!ecurbh and I went to the little store next door and found this guy laying in the doorway, cold, hungry, lonely on Christmas Eve. He's been hanging out there all morning, they said.

He's laying on Logan's old dog bed under my saddles in the living room.


He's a little flea bitten (I put some Advantage on him)... Older, a bit arthritic. He's wearing a brand new collar though, and he seems very used to being indoors. He's acting a little lost, whining sometimes when it's too quiet.
I printed out a big flyer with is picture on it to post at the store. No one is open today to take down his information at animal control or at the newspaper. All closed for the holiday.

Hey looks a great deal like our hobo dog we had at Thanksgiving! I hope blends in with the others.

God Bless you, HOTD. That boy was meant to fall into your hands today.
We hosted a beagle in our all-white-dog household over Thanksgiving, and found the owners the following Monday. He ate like a horse.

God Bless you HOTD for taking in this sweet baby, and making sure he is warm, safe, and fed on Christmas. I hope his family is still wanting him, and that you can connect with them after everything opens back up. Merry Christmas to you and your family...

Hair - and that is why you went to the store and you kept Logan's bed. 'Nothing happens, except what is meant to be'. You were there and now newdog has shelter, food, and caring guardians.
As others have said, ya done good, real good.

Thank you for all the pings HOTD. A very Merry Christmas to you and yours as well as your new found friend from me and Strider (below)

He looks like he's settling in real good:') I would lock him up in a chew proof room when you leave tomorrow.

Not exactly a Christmas puppy, but he's a sweet looking dog. What doesn Gidget think of her visitor?

Good job saving him! I feel bad for the family that will be missing him on Christmas :( At least he is safe.
