LOOK UP… LOOK WAAAAAAAY UP!!!

“I found Hurshey around 11:30 this morning. I thought I heard him bark so I headed into the wooded area beside our house. I couldn’t tell if it was my dog crying or a bird chirping. When I was about to turn around and give up, I looked up and found my dog 30ft in the air in a tree. He was terrified and wouldn’t get down. The kind people at Elmsdale fire department came and rescued my dog out of the tree. Thank you everyone for caring and Sharing but Hurshey is now home safe and sound.” From Hurshey’s Very Happy Owner (4.18.13 – 4.19.13)

Kaylah’s New Leg!!

April 7, 2013 by 5 Comments

 

I think everyone remember’s Kaylah, the Shepherd lost outside of Truro who was found in a Coyote Snare six months later.  She lost her paw but her life was saved thanks to the appropriate action taken by the trapper. He called Animal Control and they found a Vet who would trek the mile and a half into the woods to release Kaylah safely.

Well, here is Kaylah today.  Learning how to use her new leg and loving life. Her family are so grateful to have her back. No wonder… just look at that sweet face!!

HAPPY ENDING STORY: “CLIFFORD” – Lost Kelpie, Kingston, NS

March 19, 2013 by Leave a Comment

LOSTCliffordKelpieLantz3:16:13

From one of the Finders:

“He was going up to other dogs on the Ridge and owners were telling him to go home last evening. Obviously looking for help.
So the food was set out on the path in the woods and we sat there. His owner saw him as he approached the food and although a little skittish, he came to her. Beautiful dog and really likes his new owner. Adopted a month ago.

We had food for him and water. He saw a stuffed toy so I gave it to him. He curled up in the van and was ready for sleep, that fast. He wanted to be found.”

NSLDNThankYouNote12:12

“Thank you for everything you do for the lost dogs of our Province. The world needs more people like you. Thank you, Leah”

 

This is a note that appeared on my car before Christmas.  My car has NS Lost Dog Network magnetic bumpers stickers all over it. I’ve been meaning to share this with all of you as I believe the kind thoughts in this note belong to all the members of the Nova Scotia Lost Dog Network.  Every time you share the information on a lost or found dog you are bringing it that much closer to home.  This doesn’t work due to one persons efforts, but because all of us care and share.  And the more of ‘us’ there are, the more dogs that will be reunited with their families.  We would love to hit 10,000 “Likes” by the end of our 2nd Anniversary Month long celebration, January 31, 2013.  Please take a moment and talk to folks about us, share our info and ask them to join us in Bringing Missing Dogs Home.  Thank you to “Leah” who left that note, it made me burst with pride in our Network.

How to Use NSLDN Resources to Help Bring Missing Dogs Home – The Owner of a Happy Ending Pup Shares Their Story

January 17, 2013 by 6 Comments

Remi

 

What do you think lead to Remy being Home, Safe n’ Sound?

It was combination of posters and your site.

A couple spotted him last night in their parking lot and this morning and thanks to your website contacted me which got us back on the right trail.

Where did he spend the night?

We found where he spent the night, a nice little indent of him in a pile of leaves in the same place.

What was your plan then?

So a few hours after that spotting I was putting up posters in a major way around that area.

This lead to another sighting being reported:

I got a call from someone a block away that had just spotted him and called me thanks to the posters.

What happened when you arrived?

He was I saw him and he ran!

How did you proceed?

Thank god for the SNOW!!!!! I followed his tracks to a closed in back yard. and was able to use bags of soil they had to block the gap (so he couldn’t escape).

How did you approach him this time?

I got down on the ground and let him come to me. And a nice couple that had spotted me let me into their apartment to get him warm and get him calm before we tried to go home.

So you read the links we provided?

The getting low thing I read from your site and it helped – it honestly did. And he ran from my wife and I a total of 4 times while he was gone. It really hurts when he did it, but I understand now that it wasn’t because he hates us or anything like that, he had got free, he was excited and scared and nervous, and not because he doesn’t feel loved, its just his instinct. Soon as I got low though he get low as well and kinda crawled toward me and then attacked my face with his tongue. But the more excited we acted at first, when we couldn’t contain ourselves when seeing him,  just scared him off. You really do have to control your own instinct in order to theirs.

Thank you Katie and Tom for sharing, we are so happy that Remy is home where he belongs.
