A Man Found His Lost Dog On An Adoption Site While Looking For A New Dog
The owner serendipitously reunited with his bud 18 months later. H/t CBC News.
Albertan Richard Brower came across his own dog — who went missing 18 months ago — listed on a local rescue website while he was looking to adopt a new one.
Richard Brower / CBC News
In a radio interview with CBC, Brower said he had determined his dog Dozer was stolen from his own backyard a year and a half ago when he noticed the locks had been broken in. When he began browsing the local Claresholm Rescue Society's website for a new pup, he suddenly and serendipitously spotted Dozer in one of the listings.
"My heart just kind of sank and I started shaking," he recalled that exact moment. "I called Claresholm right away."
Brower then had his dad, who was closer to the shelter, stop in. Dozer recognized his father immediately as he "started going nuts and wagging his tail".
After the shelter verified that it was indeed his dog, both the Claresholm employee and Brower started tearing up. "The lady at Claresholm started crying, I started crying, and all the other people at the shelter were crying," he said. "Yeah, It was quite the day."
Here's to Brower and Dozer's happy, heartwarming ending :')

Calculus Joke
Two professors are at a restaurant, arguing about the state of education today. "Nobody learns calculus anymore," lamented the first. "That's not true," replied the second, "it's part of the freshman curriculum."
"Okay, I'll tell you what," offered the first professor, "we'll ask the waitress a simple calculus question; if she gets it right, lunch is on me." The second professor agreed, but said, "But give me a minute, I have to use the bathroom, first."
So the second professor gets up and heads toward the restrooms. Before he gets there, though, he finds the waitress and says, "This may seem weird, but my colleague is going to ask you a question. When he does, I want you to say, 'x cubed over three', okay?" The waitress agrees, and the second professor returns to the table.
After a couple minutes, the waitress comes by to ask if everything is okay. The first professor asks her, "My friend and I were just discussing whether or not people bother to learn calculus anymore. Can you tell me, what's the integral of x squared?"
Dutifully, the waitress answers, "x cubed over three."
"Well I'll be, I guess you were right!" exclaims the first professor, "Looks like lunch is on me!"
Walking away, the waitress is heard to say, "Plus a constant..."
