U.S. Department of Agriculture veterinarian Terry Conger said Tuesday that Snowball, a small white dog taken by police Thursday from a sobbing little boy as he boarded a bus at the Superdome, has been located at the Gonzalez shelter and will be reunited with his owner.
"This is one of the heartwarming stories," Conger said.
The dog is among about 3,000 animals brought into the shelter system, Conger said. Photos of unidentified animals will be posted on Petfinder.com.
But a smack on the nose to Washington Post columnist Marc Fisher on people empathizing with pets in the stricken area: Beats me. But then again, I cannot fathom why all these folks who stayed behind to take care of their pets would risk their lives for an animal that they could easily replace at any pet store. Asshat.
Also on the brighter side of cataclysm: Snopes on The Price is Right's N'Awlins/speedboat prize package. I'm sorry, maybe I'm becoming insensitive or jaded or something, but I still find this downright hysterical.
Ten minutes until the weekend and I haven't been fired yet. Charmed existence, I tells ya.
