"This is Buddy my 14 pound, two year old silver dapple tweenie Dachshund and on the 16th of April 2010 while we were out of state and some friends were dog sitting him for us( and our first time ever leaving him with someone). They took him out for a morning walk, he slipped out of his collar and took off. He is still missing if you have seen him email me at birdgerd@yahoo.com and title the email Buddy. He was lost in Salmon Creek in Vancouver, WA, but he could be anywhere. It was very strange that he would do this. He has NEVER tried to slip out of his collar in the past, I guess he is just that loyal to us."I miss him so much,as his name says HE WAS MY BUDDY
