HoundsGood: Chronicles of a Virtual Volunteer

I do not know Gina personally, but really think she deserves to get her sweet dog back.  This is a reminder to everyone to keep their dog in their supervision while they are outside, to knock on the nearest doors first if you see a dog that you think is a stray. Also, keep an id tag on your dog, and also consider microchipping so you can be reunited in case the unthinkable happens. Unfortunately, it is possible that if the dog was taken to a shelter, she is long gone. the best case scenario is that she was adopted, the worst case if she was euthanized, especially over the Thanksgiving holiday. If you have adopted Rosie, please contact her mom.

Hello,

My name is Gina Lunsford, and my dog Rosie went missing on 11/22/2008 from Bald Eagle Road in the Bold Springs Area of Franklin County, Georgia. She’s a red miniature dachshund, full blooded. Spayed female, 9 lbs (when healthy and full, it’s been over a week now), and has short hair. She has some extensive scars on her left side and back from some stitches over the summer and the fur has not grown back. When she disappeared, she was only wearing a flea collar, since her other collar was dirty and I was going to wash it before putting it back on her, and unfortunately she’s not microchipped. She’s very friendly and likes to ride in cars. I believe she was possibly taken by someone driving along my road who may have thought she was a stray since she wasn’t wearing her regular collar. I’ve attached a flyer with her photo, where you can see some of the scars if you look closely—I don’t have a better photo of the scars, but I’m also attaching the photo itself, larger so you can see better. I thought it’s possible she would end up at an adoption agency. Please let me know if you come across her. I love and miss her very much. I am offering a reward for her return! You can email me or call my cell number which is 706-540-6437.

Thanks for any help you can give me!

Sincerely,
Gina Marie Lunsford

It looks like that is near Carnesville, but as, you know, dogs can travel far if they were picked up by someone.
