104. Yard Sale Dachshund Update

In post 99 I wrote about the man who sold the dachshund at his yard sale, when it wasn’t his to sell.

Well, poor little Kringle still has not been found, but the man who sold him now feels remorseful, and has offered to help find him, by putting up flyers around the town.

I still haven’t managed to find a photo of Kringle – I hope there’s a photo on the flyers, or they may not have the desired effect.

99. Stolen Dachshund Sold at Yard Sale

I can’t believe this! A man SOLD a dachshund at his yard sale and it wasn’t his dog to sell. He then rang the owner to tell her what he’d done.

What is the matter with people? Clearly he didn’t have any quality items for sale at his yard sale, so he decided to steal a dog to sell.

The black and tan dachshund Kringle managed to slip out of his collar and got free, and now his owner is heartbroken. Read the full story here:

I do hope the people who bought him have enough of a conscience to return him to his rightful owner.

57. Stolen Dachshund Finds Her Way Home

Almost a year and a half after a young dachshund disappeared, she has now been
reunited with her delighted family.

In October 2005 Ruthie an 8 month old dachshund, was sitting on the back seat of the family car in Long Island when her owner Nancy Noel stopped to go into a store.

But when she returned to the car only moments later, Ruthie was gone.

The police were contacted, and fliers were put up arouind their neighborhood, but all to no avail.

But last week she was seen roaming around the Bronx by a good samaritan who dropped her off at a shelter in Manhattan.

Luckily Ruthie had been microchipped, and workers at the shelter were able to contact her family. Now 24 months old and 10 pounds heavier, her family never thought they’d see her again, but are over the moon she’s back home.

The moral of this story? Ruthie would never have found her way home if she wasn’t chipped – So always get your dachshund microchipped!
