dear Mari
that is a cute story about your friend's miniature schnauzer! i wonder if it is a breed trait... hmmm...
dear Bobby
you could try the phone book, or even if she is unpublished she may be listed - you could call information - 411, or (area code)-555-1212 it's a toll call but not expensive. free from a public phone, if you have one nearby. (used to be free anyway i dunno now...
)
or maybe you know someone else that could get hold of her for you?
i am sorry you are feeling trapped. maybe it will feel better when you start taking Luc out and the housetraining improves.
