GovernmentShrinker, did you ever hear any more about this "story"
"Snowball" has never been found, nor has any more information turned up. The only thing that is pretty well established is that the little white dog that was shown in video footage desperately pawing at the door of a bus as it drove away, was NOT a dog belonging to a young boy, and thus not the legendary "Snowball". That dog apparently belonged to an elderly woman who said "There goes 9 years of companionship" as the dog was taken from her. I really think there's no evidence whatsoever that "Snowball" and the little boy who supposedly vomited in hysterical grief over losing his dog, ever existed. Until AP answers the questions of the woman who is coordinating the reward fund (let's start with basic stuff, like what color was the little boy?), I'll continue to assume the story was a fabrication.
