Nic adds that they plan to take her to a vet Saturday and have her checked for a microchip.

“Even if she isn’t chipped she’ll be off to the shelter,” he adds. “She is a very sweet dog, I really hope we can find her family.”

UPDATE 12/26/11: Monday morning (Dec. 26), we happened upon a Craigslist Ad that accurately described the found black male lab that we first posted about on Christmas Day (pictured above), found near SW 160th and 16th SW in Burien’s Gregory Heights neighborhood.

We called the number listed in the Ad and told Josh, the dog’s owner that we were pretty sure we knew where his dog was. We gave him the contact info for Barb and Randy Coplen, and we’re happy to report that “Baxter” will be reunited with his owners today (Monday, Dec. 26)!

PREVIOUSLY: BTB Reader Barb Coplen sent us the pic above, along with a note that she “found a lost dog wandering on SW 160th and 16th SW on Christmas day.

He is a young, black, male lab.”
