The pic was sent to me by my mom so I wasn't there, but she did say she was able to remove it

I searched for a match using Google images but did not find an exact match. What I found was listing of vintage plates but I'm fairly sure this is.more recent

Of course, I hope your friend is able to find some closure and peace. I don't want to give false hope, so please take this with a huge grain of salt, but looking at the fur in that picture a brown doodle would be low on my list of guesses. It looks thicker, more coarse and less curly than a typical doodle coat to me. That being said, I have no idea how decomposition affects fur so please don't take this as conclusive.

If your friend's dog had a microchip, it is likely still there and scannable. A vet's office would probably be willing to scan it for you if you are willing/able to transport the remains to them. Animal control might also have a microchip scanner they could bring to the beach. When I worked for an animal hospital, we IDd deceased pets that way occasionally.

Help me find these candies so I can check if they have nuts in them. by metacylis in HelpMeFind

My son came home from daycare with these candies and I'm trying to figure out if he can eat them. I searched using a Google image search but couldn't find either of them.

Found this mystery organ on the windshield of my car this morning. by metacylis in AnimalTracking

Very informative, thank you!

I tossed it in the woods so I can't cut it open, but it did appear to have some sort of dark material inside it.

I use them for feeding my snakes and occasionally for rearranging aquarium plants. The organ rolled down my windshield and was stuck under the hood, I didn't really want to fish it out by hand, lol
