We lost a family dog in 2005 and were fortunate that two kind people found her after almost a whole month. She was lost during the coldest part of January and Im not sure how she survived. I was so happy to see her! You can read her story if you'd like.
If your pet becomes lost, dont give up on them. They want to come home and it could take a while. Do everything you can to find them and bring them home safely. |
