Too Good to be True

Blown-away Chihuahua reunited with owners

WATERFORD TOWNSHIP, Mich. – Tinker Bell has been reunited with her owners after a 70-mph gust of wind picked up the six-pound Chihuahua and tossed her out of sight.

Dorothy and Lavern Utley credit a pet psychic for guiding them on Monday to a wooded area nearly a mile from where 8-month-old Tinker Bell had been last seen. The brown long-haired dog was dirty and hungry but otherwise OK.

The Utleys, of Rochester, had set up an outdoor display Saturday at a flea market in Waterford Township, 25 miles northwest of Detroit. Tinker Bell was standing on their platform trailer when she was swept away.

Dorothy Utley tells The Detroit News that her cherished pet "just went wild" upon seeing her.

Jokes could go either way on this one with a Peter Pan or Wizard of Oz theme.

Should the dog have been named Toto?
Was the psychic the Witch of the North?
Was there fairy dust around the dog when it took flight?

  1. The dog should be renamed "Toto."

    The psychic is a psychotic witch.

    Orange smoke was substituted for fairy dust as the word "fairy" is now designated as a non-politically correct word.

  5. I think the name should be changed to: "Lucky"

    Other than that it is a strange story.

    Blessings.

Attention to those who have nothing to offer other than mindless drill or just want to harass me: DROP DEAD!

To the others whom I have enjoyed over the years, don't waste you breath on those morons. We have better things to do like contributing to society in a positive way.
