Free dog! Bonus! I’m surprised she just sat by the road waiting for you to get back from work. > [@burpo\_the\_wonder\_mutt](#): > > **Germain** , you’re just a saint; good for you! Well, Duh! It says so right in his username! 😉 She’s no Dachshund, but a good looking dog. Looks like a scrapper! ---

**gigi** - Thanks! **Gatopescado** - Stumpy wasn’t leaving her bag of dog food. In fact, while I was at work she’d pulled the bag close to the treeline and was laying on it. It’s all she had from home, I guess. Now she’s sleeping on my bed. StG ---

Just an update. Stumpy was spayed and microchipped yesterday, so I guess she’s officially mine. She’s settling in so very well. It’s been a stressful time, with dog Frank having been attacked and losing a leg. But Stumpy’s just a happy-go-lucky, enthusiastic girl. She’s a Good Dog. StG ---

So happy for Stumpy and you. Live long and prosper! ETA how’s Frank doing? ---

**Beck** - Frank’s recovering pretty well. He has to wear an e-collar because he won’t stop licking, and he hates that. He’s learning to adjust to his new balance, although he’s still on restricted activity. I did go into the office for 1/2 a day yesterday, the first time I’ve left him since I brought him home from the hospital, and he did just fine alone in the house. Tomorrow I drive a rescue transport that’ll take me away for several hours, so hopefully he’ll still do just fine. Thanks for asking. StG.
