A reader found a dog and wants to help reunite it with its owner. Her's what he says:
A dog just wandered down my street (Montclair Ave.) in Batavia, and walked right up on my porch where me and my dog were sitting. I had never seen this dog in my neighborhood before so Ii put a leash on him and walked around the surrounding block asking everyone i saw if they had ever seen the dog and nobody recognized her. So I called the shelter and they said nobody called about that one yet but to bring it in. The dog is a female looks somewhat like a jack russel white with black and tan patches, I was just wondering if you could post that this dog is safe at the shelter so if the owner or someone who knows the owner might have a good lead for a happy reunion.
UPDATE: The owner saw this post and recovered his dog, according the the reader who sent this in.

Just a thought, maybe thebatavian.com could run pictures of animals at the county shelter that are waiting/available for adoption? I'm sure someone at the shelter would be willing to work with you in order to find homes.
That's in the plan, once
That's in the plan, once Billie and I get a little more settled and have more time.
Maybe obituaries? Then I
Maybe obituaries? Then I would never have to go to that other site.
Yeah, and Beth, let me know
Yeah, and Beth, let me know if you run across my name in there. LOL
I was thinking about obits
I was thinking about obits too.
Any funeral home is welcome
Any funeral home is welcome to post obits for free. We have set up special accounts for the funeral home previously, but they have yet to see any obits posted. Maybe they don't know how much demand there is from The Batavian readers for local obits.
I think that is kinda morbid
I think that is kinda morbid but actually a good idea. I only check the obituaries to see who dies that I know but feel guilty that i wasnt close enuff to them to know they died. Then there are a few I hope to see......
