I was confused by Dave's dog story... did the vet scan the dog and not find a chip, or did he find a chip that was blank? Why would you put a chip in a dog without any of the information necessary to identify it?

Dave said there was a chip in the dog's ear, but it had no information on it. I know, it doesn't make sense, but there you have it. The picture of Harry holding the chihuahua was sweet, although Harry looked a tad wistful. The dog looked like a perfectly nice little dog, just the right size for a child.

There are several types of chips and they take different scanners to read them.
It might be that the chip wasn't compatible with the scanner used.

That was Dave's question.
Maybe...but maybe seeing the dog on TV, the family will come forward if they still want it.

I would say most people, most normal people, a club of which I am not a member, do not watch the show every night so they don't notice/care. That being said, I find myself giggling out loud at the "thing on DT's head" jokes lately. Especially fond of the one where "it caught the bouquet" at his daughter's wedding. It's the visual.

That's what I was thinking. The chip wasn't blank, but not compatible with the scanning system. Best bet to go to the Humane Society.
And while I'm certainly no Chihuahua fan, I was slightly disturbed by Dave's hypothetical references to tossing the dog in the East river.

But if they do....poor Harry! He's already named it, and in the picture looked like it was already his doggie - dressed in a sweater and everything. He's going to be heartbroken if he has to give little Hugo Chavez back to its owner. (I was awaiting a "Paris Hilton and one of her many 'lost' chihuahuas" joke, but we got the East River instead...bah...)
Naw. I like the show. I just hate the nightly repitition of the same monologue. I think it would improve the show as whole if new and funny material could be written for the monologues instead of the same jokes being repeated every night. But I realize that others here enjoy hearing the same material over and over. And ratings are up, so why change anything?
Do I sense the beginning hints of a "Michael Vick Fan Club" in the works? Why not talk about taking a dog and drowning it? Dave's on a roll, why not keep it going? I hope, since it's Harry's birthday today, that his guardian angel arranges for him to keep his perfectly sweet little love object. Hugo Chavez is his, and I'm sure Mike McIntee is thinking about getting a chihuaha at this very minute for his daughters. ;) Btw, it's amazing how much Harry resembled Regina in that picture.

I knew they were going to find that dog's owner once they showed the picture. I mean, Dave had no intention of keeping the dog once they brought it to the vet to have it scanned for an ID chip. Probably a million people called the dog's owner after the pic was shown, "I think we know where your missing dog is."
Maybe...they'll get Harry another dog if Harry still wants a dog

So the little dog's name was Oliver. He looked like an Oliver. Better than a Hugo.
Hope Harry took the situation without too much pain. I agree a new dog for Harry would be a good idea. :) A Cairn terrier (like Toto in "The Wizard of Oz") would keep him busy and amused.

Whereas a chihuahua would just make him jumpy and neurotic....
A poodle, on the other hand, might well cause him to experience hallucinations....r

No! Carin Terriers are the worst! More vicious than pitbulls.

The only pitbull I've known personally had a personality that I'd classify as "joyous numbskull"....
Came home one evening when he was playing with his owner and had to unload a lot of shopping from the car...when he saw me moving around he came bounding across the parking lot to say hello and see what I'd bought, apparently missing in the dim light the fact that the passenger-side door was standing wide open...at a full run, he ran his head squarely into the edge of the door....
Not a yelp, not a whimper...his only reaction was one of puzzlement that somehow he had abruptly stopped moving forward and he couldn't figure out why....
I don't care how thick your skull is or how muscular your neck, you'd think a direct blow to the head with that kind of force has to hurt at least a little....
I used to wonder if he had the same bred-in desires as other dogs to jump and chase frisbees, but that they were thwarted by the short stumpy neck and short stumpy limbs...I needn't have worried for his fulfillment; one day he discovered a shopping cart that someone had knocked on its side near the garbage dumpsters...he was pawing at one of the wheels of the cart, spinning it as fast as he could get it to go, and quite clearly enjoying every second of this project....
So I guess what I'm saying is that pitbulls have a bad rap and can be as playful and kind as any other animal...your basic chow, on the other hand, is psychotic by nature....r

My favorite person in the whole world...an animal lover par excellance.
I defend my choice of Cairn terrier. I had a female and she was so smart it was literally shocking. Loving, too. Let's not start negative rumors about Toto in "Wizard of Oz," please. What Tony wrote is hearsay. Let him back up his scurullious statement with charts and graphs.
