Two lost dogs in the neighborhood

November 5th, 2009 · 15 Comments

Update Friday morning: Both dogs were found overnight! See comments for details.

Two dogs are missing in the neighborhood tonight.

My sweet and friendly 8 yr female yellow lab mix went missing last night at 86th & 3rd. Her name is Bella and she is wearing a black collar with silver name tags. She is also microchipped. Please if you have spotted or found her, please call me at 206-450-9042.

I am afraid the sirens from last night’s fires may have scared her off.

And the owners of Hazel Salon report that their dog ran off tonight when they opened the door to take out the trash.

Gary…ran across the street (dragging his leash), was hit by a car, and then ran off. We searched for two hours but couldn’t find him. If anyone sees or finds a small, shaggy-haired black dog in the Phinney Ridge area then please give Tara a call at 206-605-0471. He has a microchip, no tag, and may still be wearing his collar and dragging a leash behind him.

We’d also like to say thanks to the many neighbors who came out into the rain and wind to help us search.

    please keep an eye out for Gary. He just got adopted in late August, and had a tough previous life. He is very timid and nervous, add possibly injured and he is likely hiding under something and being quiet (which he did often). While he is microchipped, I don’t know how quickly the system is updated with our information, and it may still be the foster parents in the system.

    Bella has been found, thanks to a very nice person and the friendly folks at Lien Vet for keeping her company.

    Did Gary go missing from the salon? I’ll walk my dog in that area and keep my eyes out.

    Putting dirty laundry in your yard—clothes, sheets, towels—can sometimes help animals find their way home.

    I tried to get Bella - saw her running on 80th and almost got hit 3 times - I couldn’t get her - drove all over looking for her but she was fast! So glad to hear she is home safe and sound. I was so worried about her.

    Hi my name is bobby Weinberg and I am sending a note to the owner of Bella. I am the one who found her and I am so glad you and your friend are together again. Bella had a great night with me and my other furry friends in my house. Lots of good things to eat and she slept well with my other dog.
    After doing a chip ID at Lien we got the ball rolling.
    Welcome Home Bella

    Hey, Thanks for caring!! Gary is absolutely fine. I don’t know how, but I am thankful.

    Oh hooray! I get so heartsick when I hear of lost dogs, or see them running stray. We have a wanderer/escape artist ourselves who has been helped by strangers when she has gotten free. We always try to corral stray dogs and take them home to find their owners, but sometimes they are too shy; and living near the freeway I always imagine the worst. Thanks to the people who helped those lost pups, and happy reunion to the pup owners!
