About This Item

Chip with Buffalo Chip

This travel bug is being sent as a token of appreciation to my friends on Long Island who found me a terrific home. You see, I am a dog. My name is "Chip". I was living in a pet store on Long Island. I was sent there as a small pup. The problem was nobody wanted me. I watched as the new pups came in and as visitors to the pet store fell in love with them and took them home. Nobody took me home. I tried to make friends with everyone who came in but they always took some other pup home. I was getting worried because I was there for six months and was growing out of being a pup. You know what that means. Next stop... the pound!

Finally, a very nice lady seemed to take a liking to me. She wanted to take me home but she already had three dogs. She promised me that she would find me a home. As it happens, the lady's brother and sister-in-law came to visit from Massachusetts. They never owned a dog and had no immediate plans to get a dog. The lady introduced the Massachusetts people to me. She must have worked on them all night because the next day the Massachusetts people came to get me and I finally got to leave the pet store! They took me back to Massachusetts with them and I have been having a wonderful time (with the exception of baths and puppy class).

Anyway, now that you know my background here's where you come in. I would like you to help me get this dog toy to the nice lady and her dogs on Long Island as a token of appreciation for saving me from the pound or maybe worse! Please help me move this toy to the geocache near her house (GC1030). If you find the toy already in that cache please leave it there. The lady will pick it up.

Feel free to post pics of the toy's travels.

Thank you so much for your help,

Chip

Got it. I'm not sure when my next caching trip to Long Island will be but I'll at least place it not far from NYC.

Ole Chippy is doing fine. I plan to drop him off at a brand new nearby cache since I live east of here and BC is traveling west.
