Have Not Been Reading, lately.

My Basset Hound, Howie, disappeared on July 3rd. He was scared by fireworks that were being launched (illegally) in our neighborhood. We mistakenly left him outside while we were having dinner at a house nearby. By the time we got home, Howie had escaped the fenced in backyard. We searched the entire neighborhood until midnight, calling him and hoping that he would hear or see us. No luck.

The next day was July 4th and my husband and I spent the day putting up Lost Dog signs. On Monday, July 5th we posted more signs and tried to call vets and shelters. BUT it was a legal holiday and most businesses were closed. Even the newspaper had no one on their classified ads desk. By Tuesday, we were quite depressed and missing that lovable hound dog of ours.

As of today, he has still not returned home, nor have we gotten any legit sightings or replies to our ads or signs.

We live in Shelby County, Alabama. If anyone has seen our basset, please call 205 706-0420. He is a neutered male, tricolor (but mostly black) handsome basset hound.
