OMG!!!!!!!!MY BABY'S GONE!!!!!!!! - Page 13

Tell him if he sends you a pic, and you recognize her, you will send him a pic of her you already have to prove she is yours? Surely you have one?

I would get into my vehicle and go in person to see if it's your dog.  Be nice to the person who has her - he may want to keep her himself, but usually even if they want to keep the dog they are willing to accept proof of ownership.  Bring pictures of her, a microchip scanner (if your dog was microchipped, it's in there somewhere - even if it migrated it can be found) - and scan her whole body.  Bring all of the pictures you have of her, also registration papers and vet records - anything that you can show this person that she is your dog.  Worst that can happen, you make a trip there and the dog is not yours.

"What a load of shiat!!! Nothing but a common dog thief. Collars can be taken off!!!!!! This guy is a real piece of work. If anyone has any ideas that might help, go for it."

Why would a "common dog thief" draw attention to himself by posting about the dog in the Lost and Found?

You're not going to get anywhere with that attitude. What you should do is call the guy back, apologize if you were rude to him during your earlier conversation, then offer to send HIM a picture of your dog. If he won't meet you or provide an email or home address where you can send the picture, then come up with a mutually agreeable location where you can leave the picture for him to pick up and review. 

If you do a pedigree search and type, Halley VII there is her pic.  He has seen a pic of her.  How can I go to his house.  I don't know where he lives, he won't tell me.  Northwest omaha has about 250,000 people.  I was never rude to him in any conversation & by the way mobjak, I don't know who you were calling a dummy, that was the link included in the e-mail that he sent me. 

You really need to keep looking and don't give up. Also, follow every lead. I gave a dog to some old friends and they lost  her.. didn't tell me until she'd been gone four days. Luckily, she was microchipped. I was 150 miles away and couldn't just go down to that county, looking through the pounds, so I contacted all the six shelters with the microchip number.. good thing, too, because they had mis-identified her as a "black chow", and she was a purebred GSD with a big head for a bitch. So, I normally hate animal control people, but the guy who made the match was a good guy.. I could have jumped over the counter and hugged him, hard! She was scheduled to be put to sleep the next day. I called in sick and drove down to get her. I never even told the idiots who had her that I had recovered her. She went to someone else, after that.

Another story.. A friend of mine many years ago lost three dogs. One dug out under the fence after a rain and all the others followed. One was named "Gina". Theresia looked for Gina in the shelters for two months and finally found her. She didn't even look like herself, anymore. She had been hit by a car and lost a lot of weight. This was a gorgeous bitch with a lot of temperament, and she became the mother of her best stud dog, Phantom, who was a super, super dog. So, don't give up. But seriously.. you should never let your dog roam, again. I will NEVER give or sell a dog to anyone who believes it's OK to let their dog roam free. I don't care if you are in the country. Lots of foolish people do this when they move to the country, but real country people would not allow it. These dogs get into trouble. They hook up with other dogs into packs and start to chase and harrass livestock. Farmers will shoot to kill, and bury the dog. You'll never know what happened. I don't blame them a bit. If someone's dogs were chasing my livestock or chewed up a horse of mine, those would be some dead ass dogs, for sure!

Well, Haley, I hate to say it, but you'd never get one of my dogs. I have passed up people as owners who I otherwise really liked, because they let their dogs run free. When I was giving away my former dogs from my kennel, I had a very nice male who could have gone to a nice guy a couple of states over, and then he made the mistake to tell me that his dog had gone missing for two weeks, once, and that the dog always ran free. That ended that! He did end up getting another dog that got run over twice by his jeep as it chased him down the access road. Hip joint on one side completely destroyed. I just don't believe in that..

Question
was the dog wearing the same collar and the rabies tag when you last seen her?
Most tags have the vets information on it.
Excuse me if this has already been discussed.

Don't worry DDR I don't want any of your dogs, who says shit like that anyway, really? Not an appropriate time.  Thanks for the stories with happy endings though.  We will never give up.
