aka “Karl almost gets a baby sister”…

May we have an “awwww…..”? – AND look at the size of those paws!!

So…Friday: 6:00 p.m.ish and a white van pulls up to my house – up the nearly 200 yard driveway to my house – not typical. A man and a 6-7 year old girl in the van. Karl and I go out…oh, there is a puppy also. Man says that the pup was at the end of my driveway and he was worried it might be hit on the road and was it mine? “No”, but the pup had a tag and phone number and I offered to take the pup and call and the man VERY gratefully agreed.

Earlier in the week a woman had come in the driveway looking for a pup. It had been found, but this pup matched the description… Same pup! Turns out the Mama dog, Daisy, appears to want to lose the pup – takes off with pup following and then goes home without poor Brownie.

As I got the info later, Daisy had left home early this morning and returned home at 2:00 this afternoon. So, Brownie puppy (11 1/2 weeks old) was out and about a very long time!

She was pooped! And glad to see a friendly human person…and a bit intimidated by Karl although he wanted to be her best bud. These photos…I wish they were better but everyone moving and me trying to make sure all were ok with each other…

And then I saw Bob’s face…

I wish it was in sharp focus, because Bob’s face was clearly saying: “Don’t EVEN think about it!!!”

Brownie had a tag with her phone number AND I had the family’s number from earlier – match! They were all out looking for Brownie.

Dad and girls arrived first, Mom just a bit later. Brownie was happy to see all and all glad to see her.

Karl and I had mixed feelings but after they left as I was doing minor chores and happened to glance at the motorhome…the thought of Karl, Bob and a puppy….

An evening with Brownie was full of fun. The joy of Brownie’s reunion with her family, even more so!
