Marmee Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Hi everyone! Been a lurker here since I got my Cairn Trapper 2 years ago... Anyway I was on CNN.com this morning and clicked on the video link about a puppy on an airport runway in Burbank (puppy is safe). The narrative said it was a 7 lb Yorkie, (I have one of those too!) but the little guy sure looks like a wheaten Cairn to me! Can't find a link to post, but maybe you can check it out.

wheezie23 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 That is SO NOT a Yorkie! Poor little guy! I'm glad he was caught and not hurt. Now hopefully he'll be adopted by someone who will make sure he doesn't get away and into trouble again!

Barney's Mom Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Oh, that poor baby!!!! I hate to think that it got loose from someone's crate who was taking it on the plane! They must be about half sick!! So glad it didn't get hurt. Can you imagine the fright in that poor dog's body, being on a plane runway! Hope he is with his owners now, or with a loving home! Hey, they could name him Runway! Well, maybe not...... All creatures great and small, the Lord God, He made them all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toomanypaws Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 No, that is definitely not a Yorkie. I think it's a terrier mix. I do see alot of Wheaten Cairn in him. I'm just glad he's safe and now wish he either gets back w/ his owner or someone adopts him. Whatever he is, he's a cutie. <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/maiwag/terriersiggy.jpg" border="0" class="linked-sig-image" /> Beth, mom to Ninja (5), Hannah (7), Abbey (7 1/2), Kiara (10) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goforette Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I seen that report too on the news last night and I was thinking the same thing - that's not a Yorkie - looks like a Cairn and can sure RUN like one...... speed demons.....

wags Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Thanks, Bradl. I watched the 2 videos. The second showed how cute he was. I hope he'll find his family or a new home soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brody'sMom Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Poor thing. The article said he is in a shelter and they've had several calls about adopting him. They've named him "Taxi," which is really cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawnya Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I just saw the news and thought the same thing - looks like a Cairn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dianer Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 They carried that story on our local news the other night. The newscaster said the dog weighed 7 pounds which is yorkie sized but I thought it had the hard hair and coloring of a cairn. It acted just like Cassie when you try to catch her. It shut down the Burbank Airport the little dickens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hagar Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I saw the same item on Fox News, and I sure thought it looked like a young Cairn. Definitely a cute little guy! Glad he's safe. Hagar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrissysb Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 They've named him "Taxi," which is really cute. I LOVE that name. Maybe for the next... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrskti Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 i was thinking that since they chased him all over the tarmac that "Mac" would be a cute name. I'm sure a cutie like him is already adopted out. Terry, mom of Dori and Ellie Mae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora5000 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 On GMA they had a story about said pup and showed the person that got the dog in a raffle at the shelter. The pup really looked like a Cairn when it was getting a bath.Strangly, the new owner was in the Aviation field. Did you know the dogs name was "Taxi"? You must give some time to your fellow men. Even if it's a little thing, do something for others - something for which you get no pay but the privilege of doing it. -Albert Schweitzer (1875 - 1965) Chase and Gus video Youtube- Best of Chase and Gus Cairn Terrierists It's because cats simply can't be trusted for heavy lifting & dirty work required in the war on terrior.

Eliz222 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Poor little guy! He must have been scared to death! I'm glad that he is safe now, and I love the name they gave him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
