Using Dog Radar
Tuesday, August 7th, 2007 by Mike CronkOne of our customers, Karen Waters, owns a Jack Russell/Beagle mix named Mark. She arranged for her friend Cyndi Richardson, to care for Mark while she was away. Karen lives close to Martha Jefferson Hospital. Cyndi lives south of town, close to Tonsler Park. Mark had never been to Cyndi’s house before. He rode there in the car and was dropped off at Cyndi’s house as planned. But once Karen left, Mark escaped out the door. Cyndi called Karen to report him missing. Two hours later, Mark showed up at home! Think you could find your way home from a place you’ve never been before? We’ve written about each of the senses—what helped Mark find his way home? Smell, sight? The mysterious dog radar!
