Mouse's Origins

Something tells me this isn't a coinicidence. If I were Mr. Sunshine, I might makes sure that a certain wizard that seems to be tied to many important events had a positive influence in his life that balanced out the negative.
Lash was a corrupting influence, whereas Mouse gave harry positive memories to draw on, even a motivation. There is a passage in Dead Beat, where Harry is feeling like he is in over his head, and he recalls that Mouse "thought I was pretty darned cool" and it picks him up.
I don't think this was a 7 words type balancing of the scales. But more of a life-line if you will.
and the part of Blood Rights where Harry looks back at the Pups and finds that the Notch-eared Puppy had fought his way to the top of the dog pile supports your theory wonderfully.

i sort of agree with this. we have always seen Mouse being attentive to Harry, licking his hand after the SoulSlap he gave Thorned and such. Bob says we share our soul w/ each other through hugs and good times and such. what if Mouse is helping him regen his soul and aid Harry by giving him doggie hugs and such.

I'm sure Tara has a sister or 5.

or that a message has gotten to The Temple concerning a FOO DOG running around Chicago (wanna bet that Ancient Mai outright sent a scroll to the mountains right after she saw Mouse in Turncoat??) if you assume that Foos are born as Pairs then Mrs Mouse is running around in the mountains without Her Mate.

Or Mrs. Mouse is the puppy that Harry didn't necessarily save.

Considering Harry's habit of trying to save Distressed Damsels, it would be quite amusing to watch him playing second chair to Mouse being the stubborn, headstrong, White Knight, rushing into danger to save a woman (dog). He would get to be an amusing hypocrite again, like he was when he first got Mouse, and commented about his puppy behaviour, even though he acted the same way. ;D
