Posting from the road

And I do mean “from the road”… Jennifer is driving and I am on the laptop as we drive down I-5 on our way to our cruise.

At some point I am going to have to post the tutorial on how to use a Sprint LG 5350 PCS phone as a mobile broadband modem.

Disputed Lost Dog Returned To Its Owners

KTVU is reporting that Bella, the lost two-year-old Golden Retriever, was returned to her owner today.

“At approximately 3 p.m. today, Bella was returned to the Humane Society and was reunited with her owners, Niki and Peter,” Benninger said.

The couple that had adopted Bella earlier this month returned the dog following the extensive media attention the case has received and after being assured that Karanastasis was the rightful owner of the 2-year-old golden retriever.

Valley barking over tale of lost pet

More on yesterday’s story of the lost dog subsequently adopted by someone else even after the rightful owner tried to claim her.

The new owners of Bella, a 2-year-old golden retriever, say they’re keeping her. And the Humane Society insists there is nothing it can do.

“We continue to side with the law,” said Laura Fulda of Humane Society Silicon Valley. “You can’t just say `Anything goes.’ ”

When owner Niki Karanastasis showed up at the agency’s Santa Clara shelter Jan. 8 — hours after the dog’s adoption was arranged — Fulda said, officials called the new owner. But she was not interested in giving up the dog. Later, a friend of Karanastasis’ appealed by phone, but to no avail. The new owner took Bella home the next day.

What’s it going to take for this person to give the dog back? Honestly. What kind of horrible person would keep a member of someone else’s family?
