Harley's Story

On Sunday, September 9, 2001, two days before 9/11, we found a puppy on our street.  We were coming home from church that Sunday morning and when we turned the corner and entered our street, there he was, standing in the middle of the street.  I asked Carl to stop the car, but he only slowed down.  I said, "Stop the car, all the way, stop the car!".  Finally Carl stopped.  I got out and scooped up the puppy.  He was about 3 months old, and he was sick and covered in fleas.  I suspected that someone had dumped him off in our neighborhood.  He was too small to have wandered far.  But we searched our neighborhood to try to find his owner.  No one claimed him.  I thought he was adorable.  His ears and tail seemed out of proportion for his body and head, but there was no mistaking his terrier-blood.  I bathed him a couple of times to get rid of the fleas.  The next day I took him to the vet.  He had a bad cold and several places on his tail that were infected from flea bites.  When we got home that day I snapped these puppy photos.  We kept looking for his owners but no one claimed him.  I decided to name him Harley.  About a month later, he demolished our sofa and I deduced that he was a terrier-ist.  So we started calling him Harley bin Laden.  The name stuck.
