One of my favorite days was when I found a stray dog (later identified as a Whippet) at a store parking lot. I was on my motorcycle and my girlfriend held her on the short trip home. It was April so that's what we named her. We found out she was very smart (dragged us to the curb anytime she needed to do her business) and could chase a frisbee for hours even though her tongue would hang down as she panted. She also escaped through our French windows (she figured out how to open them and was it lucky we were on the first floor or what?) whenever we were away too long. I posted fliers many times and amazingly got her back. Once she was gone for almost a month and I figured she was gone for good but someone at lunch saw the flier and knew of a friend who had found a dog and lived in a different city. Got her back but alas for the last time. The next time she "escaped" was for good. I'm sure wherever she roamed, she brought a little joy to each person's life. She was indeed special. :) -- and Thanks for the honor!
