Madrid area:

"PUP" is missing -- lost in Madrid while visiting. He is unfamiliar with life here in NM - he needs your help. His family has not given up and there have been sightings the past two months. He may possibly be trying to go in the direction of Cerrillos, Santa Fe, or Albuquerque. He could have traveled quite a distance. Last seen since July 1st, 2008.

"We haven't given up hope of finding him yet. We have had some sightings within the past two months. He is a black, medium sized Australian Cattle Dog/ Blue Heeler mix with a white patch on his chest. He ran off while we were visiting in Madrid and is not familiar with the local area; He is probably scared, tired, and hungry. HIS NAME IS PUP. If you think you have seen him PLEASE contact me ANYTIME. My name is William Gruenwald 267-221-5934 ".

Please note: dogs are known to find there way home days, months, even years later. But PUP is from out-of-town so he needs to be found so he can be reunited with his family. A famous finding lately is Gracie dog who was also lost near Madrid but was found all the way over here in the Pueblo de Cochiti. So please, if you have any sightings of Pup please call William 267-221-5934 or contact this blog CLIPETS@live.com

Tips For A Happy Dog - Carol Tharnish (Prof. Dog Trainer)

1. Please DO NOT walk dogs in the heat of the day as their pads can be burned also they also they get dehydrated quickly.
2. DO shorten nails frequently as growth will cause them pain by putting pressure on the nail bed and walking may help a little on rough surfaces, but remember dew claws never hit the ground.
3. BRUSHING at least 3 times a week will keep the dog's fur clean and release all the dead undercoat. Then, bathing need only to be done periodically.
4. Teaching the basics of SIT, DOWN, and COME makes for a good pet.

If you have any dog training questions, please email clipets@live.com subject: training question

This family REALLY needs your help. This is the 2nd cat they've lost in 1 month. The cats are brother (Neelix) and sister (Casper). Both went missing in the daytime - Neelix the beginning of July (see July posting) and now Casper on August 2. They simply disappeared !

Give Lee Anne and Bill a call - see how you can help them - pass out some flyers for them, take a walk around the neighborhood for them to look for their cats. If you live around the arroyo by them - check around, down in the arroyo, around the junipers etc. Ask your neighbors to keep a look out !

Gracie Update: Gracie Has Been Found at the Pueblo de Cochiti !

Lost: Santa Fe, Hwy 14 area. Found: Pueblo de Cochiti.







July 18 we posted an alert about Gracie dog being lost around the Lone Butte general store area. We've heard from Bill, Gracie's human companion and Cindy who headed the many who stepped up to volunteer in the search - she is happily home! A momentous occassion - Ben Swan from the SFNM wrote a great article about this wonderful story. Not only is it a celebration for Gracie's return, but this is a celebration in human spirit and community to see all come together to help. We should all do this more often.
