Around the first of April I found a nice engraved dog's tag while hunting a swimming area. It had a name and phone number on it. I called them to see if they would like me to send it back to them. They were very fond of "Lucky" their dog and was happy that I offered to send the tag back to them. I found this letter in my mail box today and it brought tears of joy to read it.

Here's a pic of the tag I found.

Have a great night you all.

That is a great story! I'm sure it did move you a bit. Losing a pet is like losing a family member to us and I know something like that would bring back a lot of fond memories.

It was just the tag that was lost. They had taken Lucky to play in the water because he loved the water so much.
