My children and grandchildren even ask him now, even though they thought I was nuts when I taught them the saying.

    Our version "Tony, Tony, look around. Something's lost and can't be found!"

    I might misplace $3.00 but not $300!

    Think like a puppy! Having a puppy in the house, that's where I would put my money. You may have to go back to what your puppy was doing when you lost it? What were it's interests? It's favorite place? You probably were ignoring him heartlessly (doing dishes, folding clothes-- perhaps even telling him harshly to get off your clean panties-- and the puppy, w/o even knowing what he was really doing, hid something. Good luck!

    If the puppy has a crate, check it out! BTW, would love to see pictures of your "tea cup pincushions"!

    Try this. It usually works for me. Tony, Tony, look around. Something's lost and can't be found.
