If your disk flew afoul at either of Moundsville, West Virginia, frisbee golf courses, not to worry. Just check with the Lost and Hound.
Four years ago, Daisy, a four-year-old Labrador retriever, and her human, Kelly Mason, began ritual morning walks at Grand Vue Park in Moundsvillw, WV. The park adjoins two frisbee golf courses. Daisy paused, sniffed the air and darted into the woods on her extended leash. She emerged, a colorful frisbee clamped in her jaws.
“She looked so proud of herself,” Mason told The Washington Post.
Mason stuffed the disk in her backpack. At the time, she had no idea this find would spark a collection obsession. To date, Daisy has sniffed out 155 errant frisbees.
Mason and park officials fetched a grand idea: sell the frisbees at the park’s gift shop to support park programs and benefit the Marshall County Animal Rescue League.
Owners who’d labeled their lost disks are contacted and given an option to donate. Unclaimed disks are sold for $5 or $10. Proceeds benefit the park and animal rescue.
Park assistant manager, Ben Bolock, reports that donations are pouring in from the general public and the frisbee owners themselves. “We actually just got off the phone with the owner of a disk and he’s ready to make a donation,” Bolock told ABC News last week.
Mason is especially touched that Daisy’s talents are bringing needed supplies and services to homeless four legged friends. “We’re glad to help the other animals,” she said.
