Safely Home: Overjoyed To Be Back With My Boys

I rescued Cooper and his brother, Jesse, back in September 2011, after my dog of eight years, Jack, had passed away. These puppies brought a lot of joy and happiness back in my life. Then, on 11/18/11, they both went missing from their own yard, (even though I work from home). My son and I were devastated. I looked and looked for them. I called the animal shelters close by and even had a police report made. Then, yesterday, 12/1/11, while I was in class at Vanderbilt, my son called me and told me they had been found and were at a pet store called New Leash on Life here in Lebanon, TN. It was all really odd … in class we were just talking about my dogs and if I had found them and just what had happened. After I talked to my son, I went back into class and announced that my dogs had been found and we all were just overjoyed with excitement. I took my exam and drove home as fast as I could, trying to remain calm. I arrived home, ran in through the front door and there they were, a little the worse for wear, showing signs of weight loss etc, but they too, were excited to see their momma. See, Cooper is deaf and Jesse is his ears (so to speak) so, you can understand why I got two dogs and why I was so worried for the both of them. They even slept with me (that’s another story). My son was so excited when he saw them, he called me three times before class was over … all because I had them microchipped, they were found and taken to be scanned. What a wonderful device and my son and I are so thankful to the lady that was kind enough to take them to New Leash on Life and we were reunited with Cooper and Jesse. I thank God and PetLink that they both are home and safe and very much loved.
