Found Black Lab

Ana on Activities - Mon, April 07 2008

Driving down the road and saw a black lab, he stared my way as I slowly drove by watching him, so I put the car in reverse and went back to him, opened the car door and he jumped right in!

He was lost!

But.....he had his rabies tag on so I knew what to do. Rabies tags are tracked through where the vaccination was given! I took him to the vet that administered the vaccination and his owner was there within 15 minutes! He was also chipped which would have helped to had he not had a rabies tag.

Just a reminder to all! Make sure your critter can be identified! If he had neither I would be posting looking for a home for him, his name was Buck.

And for all you dog lovers out there, a tip! Always keep a cheap dispensable leash in your car, you never know when you will need it!

Thanks for picking him up like that. That was really nice of you to bring him to the vet's office. He could've been lost for a long time.

Ana - thanks for taking that extra step to help Buck find his way back home. Hopefully the parents were thankful for your actions.

And hopefully they will get an actual ID tag for Buck.

So glad you were there to find him. Now that we have a back yard, I only let Deuce and Francie out if they have their collars on. If, God forbid, they should get out of the fence somehow, I want them easily identified so I can get them back.
