Found pug in Tuscaloosa
It's been a few years since I've been on this site, but I'm trying everything I can.
Bottom line...
Found 10/7/2009 in Tuscaloosa - black, female, pug, still a puppy. No collar. No markings. No microchip or tattoo. I've posted this on every lost dog website I found and sent notice to all of the local animal shelters.
Long story...
Last night, a black female pug wandered onto our porch. I assumed it was another instance of a neighbor dog sneaking out and going for a stroll -- happens quite a bit with the smaller dogs in my area. I picked her up and headed in the direction she came, and there was a group of people milling about talking about a lost dog. Unfortunately, they weren't looking for this pug, rather the dog in question got spooked by the pug and ran off. I didn't want to let her loose at night, so we brought her in and planned to put up flyers around the apartment complex and take her for a microchip scan today. No microchip. No tattoos. No word from anyone in the complex missing her.
It's only been a day, but it won't be long before I'll pass her along to a friendly owner. She's cute, but so far my 8 year-old shepard mix isn't too keen on a puppy in the house, and it's a bit scary to have a puppy the size of her chew toys! All-in-all, she's very well-behaved. With her demeanor and weight, we think she's only recently been lost/abandoned. She'll quietly sit beside me at my desk or outside. Her only vice is that she'll jump up onto a couch or bed if she can get closer to me -- and it hasn't even been 24 hours yet! In our house, that's only a vice because we lost our Pedi-paw filer (I'm convinced the shepard hid it), and we've got leather furniture.
Since it's been years, don't expect me to check this thread too often, but please email me if you have a lead on a past or future owner! teri@psualum.com.
