Stray dog found on Route 2

A  kind couple from Massachusetts came to the Dimick cottage on West Shore Road Friday afternoon with a sweet female dog they found wandering along Route 2.  She is mixed breed,  possibly a little ridge-back in her, medium size, about 35-40 lbs., golden coat, very skinny like she's been lost for a while, and ravenous.  She has a blue collar but no tags.  We are anxious to find her owners as the Dimick dog is not happy about sharing her home with a stranger.  We have left a message for the animal control officer, Jo Guertin, 748-4230, but she has not called back.  If you know this dog or are her owner, please contact Bob Dimick at 563-2481.  Bob is at 1809 West Shore Road, at the corner of Barre Avenue.  He and Theresa have the dog because they were the first people the Massachusetts people came upon after rescuing her.  She is safe, being fed and cared for, but needs to be reunited with her family.

Note:  Animal Control Officer Jo Guertin came and took the dog Friday after we called her.  We don't know if she has been able to locate the owner of the dog, so if you believe you know who the owner might be, you can call Ms. Guertin at 748-4230.  We hope dog and owner will be joyously reunited.
