#King #Charles #Spaniel #Rescued, what a letter


Mr. B, who found a good home

       A wonderful dog story sure to bring tears to your eyes: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/blogpost/post/dog-found-with-mysterious-sad-note-mr-b-was-supposed-to-go-to-the-pound/2011/08/22/gIQAvlzRWJ_blog.html  (Has the KING-TV original report.)
               From the Washington Post Blogspot: “Paul Wu found a small brown-and-black dog outside his Washington state home, which he told King 5 News was unusual. What’s even more mysterious — and heartbreaking — is the note that accompanied the abandoned pooch.        
         Wu found the letter and some money inside a bone-shaped container tied around the neck of the King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. The writer explained that his/her parents were divorcing and the dog was headed to the pound, King 5 News reports.                                    
          “Please take care of Mr. B. He is a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. Six years old. My parents got divorced and Mr. B was supposed to go to the pound. I think he has a better chance with you.  This is my birthday money for any of his care. He is used to kids, not other dogs.  He’s a good boy.  I know God will take care of Mr. B – Everyone loves him…especially me. Thank you.”                                                                       
        Mr. B has found a new home with Robert Kuchcinski, Wu’s co-worker. But both men still wonder where the dog came from.“All I want to do is let this person know that we found him a good home.  That’s the whole message,” Wu said to King 5.                                                    
       My comment:   Think of some child with parents leaving each other, faced with sending Mr. B to the pound.  At least there was something of a happy ending.
