3. Do you recognize this dog? Aunt Bea is a senior female Chihuahua mix who was brought to the Humane Society of the Ohio Valley on Nov. 12 by a Good Samaritan. The person found her without a collar in the parking lot at the Lafayette Center Shopping Plaza on Pike Street. She was not microchipped. Aunt Bea is being held for three days so that her family will have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership (in compliance with the Ohio Revised Code).
