Lost Dog - Has three legs, please be on look out *RECOVERED*

**bignerd** · 09-17-2009, 09:14 PM

Just a BOLO for those in the NW
Cross posting for a sad and scared friend:

Our 'family' dog Mazie, a Border Collie x Aussie and has been living with my brother in BC for the
last few years. She was lost in Calgary on Sept 12th and we are desperately trying to get her back.

She's 8 yrs old, black, white and tan and has her
right hind leg amputated.
She was seen again last night around 8:00 (Sept 16th) in the West Hillhurst area of Calgary. This is the NW, between the
Foothills Hospital and Sait area. But she's been all the way from the north end of Nose Hill Park, down to Edworthy Park, so she's covering ground!

If any of you see her, please do not approach her just call us right away!! She's very scared,bolting from people and ducking into back yards to avoid people which makes it difficult to find her. I can only hope she runs in a backyard and someone can shut the gate and call us.

Feel free to forward this to your friends, we'd really like to get her home.

Thanks so much!

That is sad...I have copied the post and emailed numerous friends in that area of Calgary.
Hope she gets home!

Thank you-hoping with the numerous spottings and her hanging around a neighborhood that maybe one well timed phone call will get her home. Thank goodness it is not cold out yet.

Phone number saved in phonebook, i'm by the area quite often, hope things turn out for you guys.

Dog was spotted in Confederation park last night around 5 PM.

Again she is mostly black with white, looks like a stocky border collie and only has three legs. Very spooky, please just call if spotted.

I was at confederation around 11am yesterday. I believe you parked infront of my car (you had an suv) and I walked my black dog infront of you while you posted lost signs on garbage bins. Just wanted to let you know that your ads online have gotten peoples attention. Really hope you find that pooch!

Wasn't myself, but was most likely my friend who lost the dog-I know she is trying very hard to find her dog-she has posters everywhere. I thought I would post on here for her since a lot of people in Calgary are on Beyond and could just keep their eyes peeled, a scared three legged dog is easy to remember.

She says they have had a couple people call and they rush over as soon as they get a call but they keep missing her.

It is hard when dogs get lost, even the friendliest dog will go into survival mode and will sometimes run from their own owner just because they are so freaked out.

Thanks for posting, the more people who are aware hopefully the sooner she comes home!

Spotted in Nose Hill Park this morning-not exactly sure what side but will update if I get more info.

**almerick** · 09-21-2009, 11:30 AM

I'll keep an eye out as I live in the NW and I tend to walk my dog often

**Pollywog** · 09-23-2009, 11:57 AM

Any recent sign of her?

Dog was found-you will not believe this, the brother who the dogs lives with was driving on 14th street and was stopped at a red light when he saw the dog in his rear view mirror crossing the road and weaving in and out of traffic to get to his truck-he opened the door, called her name and she jumped in after being lost for 11 days!!!

No word of a lie, nice to know that "miracles" still do happen.

Thanks all for keeping your eyes peeled!!
