The microchip didn't reveal anything of use except that the old dog's name is Doowee (I think I will spell it Dewey). I have a friend who is a private investigator, and even she couldn't find anything conclusive. It seems the phone number associated with the chip number has never been associated with the guy who is the registered owner of the dog, and there isn't any record of him living in Seattle anyhow. So, so much for that.
That said, Dewey is settling in nicely, Scott has been taking him along with King to the dog park, to work, to petco and anywhere else he happens to be going. Dewey loves to ride in the car, and like King doesn't care where you are going as long as he can go with.
We gave him a bath so he is not so doggy smelling, but still has dog-breath extraordinaire. I imagine the vet will talk us in to having his teeth cleaned when we have him neutered; because yes, he still has 'em. I figure after we drop a couple hundred bucks in vet fees on him, his sweet old lady owner will show up.

New Old Dog
Scott found a dog on Friday. He is a super sweet old dog, mostly blind and pretty deaf.
He was found on the corner of MLK and S. Henderson, wandering in traffic. It just breaks my heart , I can't imagine what circumstances this good guy found himself in to be in that situation. He is well fed, and loves to ride in the car; obviously he has spent his life as someone's beloved doggie. We are looking for his owners, but as the days go on it is not looking good. Scott put up posters all over the neighborhood in like a mile radius.
It seems like we may have a new old dog.
**update** Old dog is microchipped -- maybe we can find his home after all. I hope so for him and his person.

I laughed! I cried! Really!
Scott and I went to go see Adam Corolla's new movie The Hammer last night, and it was great! It was genuinely funny and very sweet. It's a quintessential feel good movie, and the boxing doesn't get in the way at all. I hate "sports movies" and this is not one of those, it is a nice little underdog fights the man story.
Go see it!
