A Visit From Jack River
Who’d thunk???
A Black Lab??? In this house??? YES!!!
Last week, we found ourselves adopted by a Black Lab. That’s right, in spite of the objections from Pepe and Chica he insisted on staying with us. On Thursday, November 4, a beautiful Black Lab spent the day wondering up and down our street. One time I loaned a leash to some children so that they could take him home; alas they were wrong and the dog returned. Later, some other children took him from door to door, trying to find his home and alas, he returned again. Somehow, he kept appearing at our front door!
Finally, as it was getting dark, we decided that we would take him in and put him in our back yard for the night. Then, realizing that it was going to be about 30 degrees (F) that night, we decided to make a bed for him in the garage for the night. Friday morning he was happy to see us and we sere happy to see no ‘accidents’ in the garage. I checked the newspaper and Craigslist for Lost Dog listings and there were none that fit the bill. So we decided to call him Black Jack and keep him on. If we could find his owner…good; if not, we would keep him. He was so sweet and gentle.
On Saturday morning, I checked the newspaper and Craigslist again…Still no success. It was apparent that Pepe and Chica were not real happy about this new arrangement…Especially Chica. So I decided that Chica needed quality time with Jack. Since they each enjoyed walks, I started taking them together for walks and the relationship started to warm.
Jack loved long walks, and I would walk him through the entire neighborhood…Nothing appeared familiar to him. I took him to the park and threw sticks for him. He would jump with glee and chase after them and bring them back for me to throw again.
On Monday, I again checked Craigslist, and there is was…
Lost or stolen male black lab. He's a slender build and goes by river. Last seen in Asbury Sub in Nampa around the corner of Midway and Moss Ln. Disappeared out of back yard. Has no collar. Part of the family and sorely missed. If you have seen or might know something please call.
So, there it was…Sad news for us, but happy news for Jack…Or is it River? I looked up from my computer and called out “River” and he came running to me. There you go, I had found Jack’s home. I called the number listed and found that he and his family had only just moved to the neighborhood and on his third day here, Jack/River had gotten out of his yard at the new house. Not being familiar with the new surroundings…Jack/River got lost!
His owner (Darius) came by our house Monday evening, after he got off work, and he and River had a grand reunion. River went home with Darius in the front seat of Darius’ Honda. We were sorry to see him go. But…we expect to see Jack/River again, as we told Darius that whenever he needs someone to look after River, when he goes on vacation, we will be happy to have him stay with us! (And don’t forget…River actually only lives a couple of blocks from our house!)
