Glum and Gloomy Kids Miss Their Dogs

The second day of our family vacation and all the kids are quiet as mice.  Sitting in the living room of our wonderful beach house with the beautiful surf pounding outside, with the shorline just a few feet from our backdoor…  But all the kids are speechless, stupified despondent as we wait for the phone to ring, the call that the dogs have been found and are safe.   I have never spent so much time with five kids in the same room and all of them quiet.  This is a sad, sad day.

This is not the way vacations are supposed to be.  Please help us find our dogs…

They escaped from their babysitter’s backyard sometime yesterday.  One of the four was found. A very nice woman, Valeria Furman, an employee of the assisted living facility on Garfield and Fair Oaks Blvd in Carmichael,  was getting off work last night at about 1-”15 p.m. when she spotted Annie waiting by the back door of the facility.  Valerie called the number on the tag which is my cell phone number.  Valerie was so sweet and patient to call, and took at least 90 minutes out of her Saturday night to help get Annie to safety and to go out and look for the other missing three dogs.  Thank you, Valerie.

The dogs disappeared from a house on Parque Vista Way off Walnut Avenue near Cottage Way sometime late yesterday (July 24).
