Shyla is back!!!
« on: October 09, 2008, 06:25:08 PM »
Some guy was riding down the highway near our home and saw her laying in the ditch beside the highway. He stopped and gave her water and called Animal control who called us via the tattoo in her ear. Amazingly enough after over 2 months, she looks to have suffered no ill affects. She's a little skinnier, her back hips look more sore and she's stiffer, and there is one spot on her hind end that looks like she had a matt that someone took off along with some skin, but there is no sign of infection or or any sores. Her thyroid is totally out of wack though and she's lost the remaining hair on her tail. She does not look like she's been out there in the elements for 2 months by herself... I'm guessing that someone had her and she escaped. but whatever the reason, she's back and resting on the couch beside me.

I love happy endings and I'm sure Shyla is soooo happy to be next to you on the couch (and you too).  She should sleep good; hopefully no nightmares. 

Sometimes I wish they could talk.

OMG!!! That's wonderful!  @O@ @O@ @O@

If the guy found her on the highway near your home, I'll bet she was trying to get back home to you.   O0

Beyond great news. There really aren't any apt words here - but this time for a joyful reason.

Happiness.

Thank Goodness Shyla is back, I know you did not expect her back. I find it fascinating how a pet can find their way back to our homes. Phoebe has a microchip, less torture than the ear or flank tattoo and I know you were upset when I asked you the other day how she might be.

Give her a kiss for me.

Thanks guys...

one of my customers asked me what her paws were like... and when I checked they were really soft with no cracking or hardness. So it really is looking like someone took her, and didn't want to return her. All's they had to do was call a vet and they could of contacted us that way. She's got diarrhea but is walking better tonight so I suspect she was out for a long walk today or in the last couple of days. Where she was found was basically halfway between our old house and new house. On the opposite side of the highway that we used to walk though. And she had quite a few burrs in her furr too.  I can't wait to get her into the vet on Tuesday to get her fully checked out.

I didn't catch the story about Shyla until this post.  I am soooo glad that she is back where she belongs.  I bet your twins are happy to see her home.

It would be interesting if when you took her for a walk and she showed particular interest in a neighbor's house.....
