Cops found the van dumped in downtown Toronto early this morning. No sign of

the dog. :-(

Before school this morning, I started calling every town's humane society and

animal control office between where my parents were and the city -- about 10

districts SOUTH. Then I dropped off. When I got in the door, the phone

was ringing - my mom. Spike was found, and is in Barrie, a city 45 minutes

NORTH of us!

I called the guy who found him.

The short story: the bad guys put Spike's collar on him AND PUT HIM IN THE

MEN'S BATHROOM IN A NORTHBOUND REST STOP!

The bad guys actually made sure the dog was safe and would get found and

wouldn't get run over on the highway!!!!!!!!!

So they were good-hearted bad guys with consciences after all. :-)

I'm going to pick him up in an hour. My poor dad is in at the insurance place

right now and doesn't even know he's been found!

The guy who found him (a college student!) said, " He's doing well, but he's not

eating. " I said " no, neither is my dad. " :-(

:-D

what wonderful news!! Your Dad will be so happy!!

>>So they were good-hearted bad guys with consciences after all. :-)<< there is

some movie from the late 70s early 80s where these 2 bad guys (robbers I think)

find the rich girl hiding in their car...Cute movie, sounds like the Van

stealers. They fall in love with the girl and take care of her

What a happy ending!!

Yay!! I so love happy endings!! We have a 3 year old girl who was in a car

seat that was carjacked and was missing 22 hours.....they found her

yesterday still in her carseat. Totally unscathed!

[Guest guest]

Wow - VERY happy ending. That is awesome news. I sure hope your Dad and Spike

will start eating again soon. I know pets feel like part of the family and I

know about losing them. I was praying so hard he would be found.

Jacquie,

Really pleased doggie was found. Hope they both are OK.

How is your Dad doing now?

Hardly read at all yesterday, so I read the bad news and the good news

almost at once. SO GOOD TO HEAR ABOUT THE DOG!

Nice pet-loving car thieves!

They didn't do any damage to the van, either, except for busting the

ignition so they could hot-wire it. I'm guessing it was kids just out for a

joy ride, not out to do harm.

Spike is trying desperately to lie on the back of my couch, the spot he

favours at my parents'...but my couch has no back ledge! Poor little guy

keeps falling off. LOL.

Jacquie

[Guest guest]

Oh, I'm so relieved! A happy ending, yay! I guess those " bad guys " aren't

beyond all hope after all.

Wow! Great ending!!!

They stole the van then dumped it.

They left the dog at a rest stop.

What the hell did they take the van for??

I DON'T KNOW!

My parents got it back yesterday. The ignition was busted out and the

rearview mirror was pulled off. The glove box and everything had been

looted and they took my dad's bottle of prescription Tagamet and the

retractable dog leash. They left everything else, including my parents'

coats and the stash of food and blankets in their winter emergency kit.

They left behind a set of earphones and a photograph of some girl's fully

clothed bum that was NOT a polaroid, so one of them must have been carrying

it with them.

BIZARRE.
