How Much Is That Doggie In The Window?
.

A code four broadcast, on the air, by dog car one eight three,

This stolen car has just been dumped, the suspect I still see.

Get containment units 'round this spot, as Shadow starts to look,

To find the lone male suspect, and see what else he took.
.

The guy was scared and running fast, but four legs beats out two,

Shadow quickly closed the gap, as he disappeared from view.

The focus of the search now switched, behind every rock and log,

Forget about the bad guy now, let's find the missing dog.
.

Where oh where, is my little dog gone, sang Eleven Twenty Three,

Shadow is now missing, while the suspect's running free.

Colin Renkema starts to look, through every street and lane,

As all the cover units, start calling Shadow's name.
.

The search was going badly, as the panic in them grows,

Who knows what evil lurks the streets, I'm sure the Shadow knows.

Then a break came on the phone, from a man just passing by,

He saw the dog just down the street, but, he really sounded high.
.

He said the dog was in a spot, just watching people pass,

In a nearby building there, behind a door of glass.

The units all responded, to see if they could help,

When he saw his friends outside, Shadow gave a yelp.
.

But now the problem facing them, as all looked 'round about,

How to get the door unlocked, then get poor Shadow out.

All options were exhausted, ideas had all been hashed,

Finally, decision made, the door of glass was smashed.
.

How much is that doggie in the window, asks a song by Patti Page,

In his case, close to fifteen grand, when a dog has come of age.

But Shadow's now worth fifteen three, adding in the fee,

Of repairing all the damage done, to try and set him free.
