D.J. Rodrian and his dog Titus, run along the Menomonee River in Wauwatosa in 2010. Rodrian recently slept in a tent for days near the site of the dog’s last sighting.

Oh, how sad.

But the dog must had a real good life before.

Sad story. I may be a bit more obsessive than others, and I'm certainly not being critical of the owner, but I philosophically disagree with this..

"On April 1, while Rodrian was vacationing in Arizona, Titus broke through a window and escaped from a dog sitter's house near 51st and Hampton."

Frankly, if I can't take my dog on vacation, I don't go there. If I have to go out of town for business and it's absolutely impossible to take him, I spring for the best kennel I can afford. Fortunately, I have a job that allows me to take my dog along on a lot of my trips, and I've only found myself in this situation a handful of times in the past 10 years or so.

Sir William Thatcher is the best friend I've ever had. He's 5 and I'm 58. He knows me like a book and I, him.

God made both of us for a reason, I reckon.

My sister has a ridgeback, greatest dog breed ever. She’s always so gentle with the kids even as babies yanking on her tail but as soon as anyone nears the house she goes into guard dog mode releasing ferocious sounding barks and growling.

The only dog I can play catch with that will patiently drop the ball/frisbee at my feet to be thrown again rather than trying to fight me for it. Even gentle to wrestle with without ever nipping with her teeth but has bitten and chased strangers off the property on several occasions. All without any formal training, just raised in a loving family...

Dogs.

Their free spirited sense of adventure gets them into trouble sometimes. Can’t take the animal out of the dog. They love to explore and get into stuff, and that’s part of what we love about them.
