Lost & Found

Someone's lost their loveable, siberian husky puppy. If they don't come claim him soon, he'll be a permanent part of our family.

Der Deutscher found this not-so-little scamp this morning while walking Jazzy. He just followed them home.

He had no tags and no microchip. We're putting up posters and have notified the local shelters.

But, as much as we keep telling each other he's going back to "his" people, we're already making him ours!

JBP has already decided he wants to name him "Lightning". Der Deutscher has suggested Dawson (for Dawson, Alaska) and I came up with a whole slew of Inuit names -- of which Der Deutscher narrowed it down to Amak - which means tag (play). Thor has also been suggested.

Now we just have to decide how long we should give the "owners" to show up. The city shelter only allows 48 hours. Other shelters allow up to two weeks. Given that the poor pup is underweight, you can see his hip bones sticking out, Der Deutscher and I are leaning toward the city's 48 hour limit. We'll see.
