I just got a call from a very excited friend.
You see, last year her LGDs were stolen from her fenced property. She knew they were stolen because a fence panel had been removed to gain access. She was devastated and vowed to find her dogs. She filed a report with law enforcement and pressed them to follow up. She rode around for hours and hours for weeks on end, asking people for information and following up on every lead. Some of those leads lead her into unsavory areas of Texas and uncomfortably close to illegal activities. She put posts on Facebook and other social media. She registered them on many, many lost dog sights, she contacted rescues in Texas and surrounding states. She notified vets and sent them pictures. Months went by and she acquired another pair of dogs. She later acquired two more, but she was still determined to find her original dogs.
She was excited because she had been contacted by a woman who had seen one of her posts, and also seen the dogs on a rescue sight out of Arkansas. She looked on the sight and saw her dogs! She called me from the road, on a beeline to the rescue.
Now the questions. Why weren't they scanned? Both were chipped. Why won't they answer her calls, texts, and emails? She has contacted the athorities at her destination and they will meet her there. I am waiting to hear back from her with word about what happened. I sure hope they are there and she can bring them home tonight.
