that was found without a collar walking down the middle of the street. After three days, nobody came forward to claim her. I adopted her for $35. I named her Daisy. She was a beagle mix. Estimated age was about 6 years old. 2 years later, she was diagnosed with inoperable stomach cancer. I had to put her down. Not fun. I miss my Daisy.
