Yesterday on their way home from playing miniature golf, my daughter and her family were stopped at a traffic light. Across the intersection they saw a car pull off on the side of the road. The driver got out, left the door open, and walked to the trunk of her car. Unbeknownst to her (at least hopefully), her doggie, a young dachshund, jumped out. The lady got back in her car and drove off.
About that time the light turned green and my SIL headed to the dog, while Donica was trying to see in which direction the car was headed. They got the doggie but lost the car. They took the pup home and, of course, have all fallen in love with her. Even Sassy, the alpha beagle, welcomed her.
Donica is going to call some of the radio stations today to see if she can locate the owner. She didn't want to leave the pup alone, so Dixie and I have company today. So far, Dixie is being nice. The pup has even sniffed Dixie's toys and chewed on one of Dixie's bone, and Dixie's been good about it. Dixie looks humongo next to the pup! Of course, they had to sniff each other, and it was comical to see them going 'round and 'round, noses to rumps!
Anyway, Donica is going to try to locate the owner, but something tells me that she won't be too upset if the owner isn't located!

I bet the owner is upset. I sure would be! I'm just really glad that your daughter rescued the pup.
Keep us informed and have fun with your new playmate today :))
