est wishes and prayers sent your way Kat.

Despite us having a scure and locked wrought iron fence, my recently departed Puppers The Alsatian managed to have himself a few big adventures during his 8 years on Earth. One of last times he got out, he figured out that if he ran around the yard 6 times in a figure eight, he could build up enough speed to just sail over the fence by an inch. I had just stepped in the house to go take something out of the oven, came back and saw no dog! He thought he was in the all clear and was trotting up the street to visit his girlfriend Stella the loodhound when he was confronted by our mail carrier who snagged him by the collar and brought him home!

Sometimes, Fences, locks, ID. Tags, Microchips, collars and a chain collar can be gotten around. ANother time he slipped out of the yard when my husband foolishly let him walk down the driveway with him to put back trash cans while neglecting to close the gate behind him. In a flash, Puppers was down the drivway and off on an adventure. I got close enough to grab his collar and in a deft maneuver, he managed to wiggle out of it. The two of us and 12 neighors chased him around for almost 2 hours. he loved every minute of it too, letting us get just close enough to touch him and then running away.

Finally, an elder we know from the local Kingdom Hall very near us happened to be driving by. He stopped, got out and commanded the dog to sit down. Puppers obeyed as if Georgio was Moses coming down from the mount with the ten commandments! Georgio, the elder, came over, picked up the dog, put him in the backseat of his car and drove him home. Georgio's congregation still laughs about that to this day and teases him. My dog was funny that way. He obeyed Jehovah's Witnesses and Firemen - 2 things we have plenty of in our neighorhood. LOL.

Well, You've clearly done everything good pet parents are supposed to do. I'm sure you've already thought of offering a reward too. All my pets have 'Reward for safe return' stamped on their secondary tags.

It's good that she's been sighted with other dogs. They are no dout helping her out by showing her where the good garbage is! That should help you catch her. I too hope she's been spayed.

Pleasem keep us posted on Numa sightings. We worry aout her.
