Dave is Back!

Dave is Back!

Pics and updates tomorrow, after we get him checked at the vet. We got a call from a woman who lives far enough away that we suspect that he was trapped and released, but he still had his collar on, and she finally got him to come close enough so she could read the tag. He disappeared in August!

He remembered Audrey right away. He remembered Judy right away (she was a pretty darn happy dog, gettin’ her cat back!). Miles isn’t happy about being closed out of the bedroom, but Dave has to be quarantined until we know he’s healthy.

Miles and Spencer

Miles and Spencer

That’s actually Spencer in the back, Miles in the front. It’s difficult to tell them apart just from looking. Spencer is smaller, has a shorter nose and smaller eyes than Miles, but without his brother next to him, you have nothing to compare to! The real way to tell is by calling their names and reaching out to pet them. Miles will look up, maybe even pick up his tail, and if I’m the one calling, he’ll come over to rub up against my legs. Spencer will look up in terror, and run away backwards until he thinks he’s far enough away to turn around and continue running away. The older they are when you take them out of the wild, the harder they are to socialize. We will, though. It might take a bit longer, but there’s progress every day.
