Great story at 24/7 North of Howard Blog.
It is so comforting to know that the communtity and the press have taken such proactive steps to help Tom recover Reba. It would be only too easy to shrug shoulders and say that a dog who belongs to a panhandler has no life at all. But these people know that Reba was Tom's life and they shared a very special bond.
Cesar Milan remarks on the special bond between the homeless and their dogs in his book "Cesar's Way." He remarks that the life on the streets suits the nomadic needs of a dog. The pets of homeless people rarely need a leash, they walk quietly just behind or beside their master. They are well socialized with people and other pets. Most important they are constant companions, loyal and loving.
Let's pray Tom finds Reba very soon.

One other point, Toni alerted me that this man is not homeless. An incorrect assumption on my part. My apologies. I still stand by my comment regarding the homeless or panhandlers and their dogs. You'll rarely see a closer bond between humans and animals.
