So yesterday, I was walking thing three in his stroller and as I was turning around at the top of the street to start another lap, I noticed a sign taped to the stop sign at the end of the street.
It was a flier for a lost dog.
It seems that a family with a phone number from our area had lost their Golden Retriever. Claire was / is their lost dog’s name. The dog was / is tan and a female. Claire was lost on 04/05/2009.
How do I know all of these things about Claire the lost Golden Retriever?
I swear to God I did not make this up. But I have some questions.
Do you not have a picture of your dog and your kid(s) together or of yourselves with your beloved pet? Not one? Because this "picture" is doing jack shit to help me find your dog or know whether I’ve seen your dog. Unless Claire was in the A-Ha video for "Take On Me," no one else will either.
I mean, I would be more likely to notice your dog if a blind kid with no arms put a lump of coal in his teeth to sketch a picture of Claire than I would from this poster.
If you were my parents, I would be convinced that you actually killed and / or ate my dog. There would be no other explanation for this abortion of a "Lost Dog" poster.
That is one big honkin tail on “Claire”. Must be part beaver.
That’s the flyer that comes from FidoFinder.com, I assume. They use the same picture on their website.
You are assuming the family has a digital camera or a scanner, aren’t you? This is a false assumption. We all aren’t as fortunate as you.
On the other hand, the dog was safely reunited with the family on 11/30/2008, so this makes the second time (at least) that they’ve lost the dog.
Ok, I read the FAQ at Fido Finder, and it does allow the uploading of your dogs image.
I think you ran over the dog in the cul de sac, myself.
Yeah, they aren’t even trying. “OK, sure, we’ll put up fliers to shut the kids up but maybe Claire will like her new family better!”
sounds like Nuggie needs a hug. ((((((HUG))))))
Clearly Claire felt misunderstood (understandably) and took the train to a brighter future….and it’s her second attempt. GO Claire, GO!!!
I didn’t catch Claire in “Take on Me”, but I’m pretty sure she appeared in Flat Stanley.
May be with that shark fin tail, she thinks she’s escaping an imminent shark attack. It’s always…right…behind…her.
I have so many pictures of my dogs that I’d have a hard time narrowing them down to the photo that best captures their “lost dog” look for a flyer.
