City employees save lost dog

Friday, December 10, 2010

A week after Joyce Cooper adopted a small chihuahua mix dog named "Joey," it disappeared.

Her daughter, Monica, and son-in-law Ron Aschenbrenner, helped her look for the dog she'd quickly come to cherish. "We drove around for days, thinking, in this weather, that it might be in someone's house," Monica said.

It wasn't.

Three days after the dog disappeared, city crewmen Tom Dills and Mike Bernal found the animal in the city sewer pits, a couple of miles away from its new home.

This sounds like a wonderful story. Too bad you can't read the whole thing because Mountain Home News only prints partial stories. Would it have killed them to allow you to read a wonderful story about a happy reunion? Perhaps they need to take a lesson from the Idaho Statesman on what they publish & allow people to read.

Print the whole online? What are you thinking? Are you mad?! Mountain Home is so behind the times, they still want you to buy the paper version. Lets kill some more trees for ignorance!
