Me as an octopus, 10-27-12:

Posting for someone (dog found running loose)

Female
Maybe 6 months old according to teeth
8-10 pounds
Chocolate brown with green eyes

Might be a mixture of dachshund/chi but hard to tell.
Looks to be in good health.
A little timid but warms up nicely to people.
No collar and doubtful in the area she was found there is any chip info. Strays run rampant there.

SMALL DOGS NEED HOME - VERY VERY BONDED - VERY VERY SWEET‏

This email was sent to me Wed.: From: Debbie Danilow  (debdanilow@sbcglobal.net) Subject: SMALL DOGS NEED HOME - VERY VERY BONDED - VERY VERY SWEET (This email was sent to me Wed.): Yesterday saw three dogs coming down the street from Taco Bueno in my neighborhood. Stopped and they all ran to me. Another woman stopped to help and then they slipped into a fence on the back side of the first row of houses. I thought they lived there and all was well. I made  note of the house so I could tell the owner to fix the fence hole. Tonight I saw them running down the middle of the main street in the midst of heavy traffic. I turned and headed for the house on the corner. I rang the doorbell. Nope..not her dogs...talk to the neighbor. Rang his doorbell. Nope..not his dogs..but he has seen them running in the street for four days he says. We see them running down the block and I say 'there were three yesterday'. I follow them down the block. A woman and her husband are sitting on their porch with their schnauzer. The little maltipoo runs up to her porch wagging its whole body. She throws her schnauzer into the house, slams the door and starts trying to kick the little maltipoo. I ask why. She says they have been running on the street for a week. I say 'there were three yesterday'. She says 'there were four last week'. My heart sinks. I put the two dogs in my car. I begin talking to my neighbors about the dogs. I am told they have been following everyone for days. I am told someone in the neighborhood located the owners and the owners came to get them (they originally had tags) and the next day the dogs were loose again. I am told this time the owners never showed up again. The tags are now gone. These are very very very sweet dogs and VERY BONDED TO ONE ANOTHER. I did the best I could for photos; they are wiggly and curious. I must find a place for them to go. I am full and have rescues already. I will not take them to the shelter; they are euthanizing everything because of a distemper outbreak. Do you know anyone who would want these babies? They need a rescue or home ASAP.
