Glad to see he is home. A friend of mine had a black lab that was missing for 10 days in the winter. They live close to the Munger Tavern and we found the dog behind the Holiday gas station in Carlton. I should say we found her alive and well.
As for the other dog … ugh, probably lived near the Prairie Island Nuke Plant, where I’ve heard reports about giant rabid porcupines rushing into yards and rolling all over the small dogs.
Ugh. I Googled “dog porcupine” thinking I would possibly find the story of the victimized dog – but WOW does Google Images have a lot of similar and sad photos. I remember as a kid our lab came home with a muzzle full of quills, and it was no fun for him to have them removed – little fish-hook-style barbs. Ouch.

Yay! I was logging in just to see if there was an update. Thanks for sharing the happy ending.
I’m so glad for you!
Good dog…..happy family! Yeah!
Good thing he didn’t come back looking like this one.

Oh man, poor poor dog.
And that must be a local dog, because it looks like the pooch has his/her legs and paws crossed in the typical “Upset Duluth” look.
So glad you are reunited!
Seriously, Paul! You can’t post a photo like that without some sort of explanation! What’s the story??
The photo ended up in my e-mail and apparently was making the rounds on Facebook. I don’t know the story.
I think that story pretty much tells itself.
So glad your dog is back!
