Dog Found
A Jack Russell Terrier followed some teenagers into my yard
yesterday. They don't know where it came from, and say they already
canvassed the neighborhood asking for owners.
It was a little beat up by someone/something and pretty scared. It is now
thriving on the love of two and four year old boys. They have named it
Clifford, despite all attempts to explain the facts of life to them.
"Clifford" is a girl.
If this is your dog and you have lost her, call Eric or Charisa Player on
Olmstead Road, 895-5322.
We'll take good care of her until someone claims her with enough proof to
overcome the attachment we've already developed!!
