"Blondie" last on E FM 1550 south of Honey Grove at the Dial Community

Blondie has been missing since Memorial Day. She ran off during the storm that morning. She is scared of thunder. She is a Chow mix.

Photo is before she was clipped. She has fuzzy hair and is solid golden/blonde, black nose, and brown eyes. Her hair on her body and around her face and neck has been clipped and she has a fluffy tail. But, she has to be groomed every other day to stay pretty. So, by now she probably has a lot of knots in her hair.

She has black spots on her tongue and she has a spot on her left front leg that she keeps licking. She will not wear a collar. She is 13 years old, very friendly, and has arthritis in her back legs. She gets up slowly, but once she is on her feet she is okay.

She was last seen at E FM 1550 south of Honey Grove, TX at the Dial Community. We do not know what direction she went. She has always come home before. If you have seen her at anytime since May 31st or know where she might be, please let us know we will come get her as she may be struggling to get home. She is loved and missed very much. Blondie is very much a part of our family. Please call 903 227-3432. Or email ccharles@texoma.net.

Little Jack Russell (Zoey) with a heart

Zoey is believed to have been stolen last Apr. 4 last year along with several other dogs of breeding age on or near a home on CR 5060 (Leonard area). Zoey was very pregnant at the time she was taken. She has a heart-shaped brown spot on her left side and two brown spots on her right side. She was a cherished family member and they are still grieving for her. It just takes one kind-hearted individual to recognize Zoey and let her family know where she is.
If you have any information about Zoey's whereabouts, email to Dottie Rutledge at drutledg@mckinneytexas.org. Zoey was her baby and she misses her terribly.

Lost White & Brown Chihuahua - Duplex/Lake Fannin area

Sometime Friday night my son's chihuahua "Min-mei" (pronounced Men May) apparently climbed (or flew, she's an escape artist) out of her pen. When we went to get her to bring her in for the night she was long gone. We've been searching everywhere, and hope someone might have found her or even spotted her. I'm willing to travel to retrieve her and will follow any lead you can provide.
Min-mei is a middle aged dog; long and lean, quite large for a chihuahua. She is white with brown spots, friendly and easily approachable. Min should have on a green collar, but has been known to ditch it. Perhaps she likes going incognito. She has missing teeth as she's a rescue from a puppy mill, and didn't have an easy life there. Answers to both "Min-mei" and "Minnie". Or the sound of dog food rattling in a can. She's mercenary that way.
If you've seen her, and could give me a road or directions where she might be heading, I would be so grateful. My son is despondent at her absence. Call me (Becca) at 903-664-4566.
Please leave a message if I don't answer.Thank you for any help you can offer."Anyhoo, I want to thank you for offering this service. It's very generous. It's so bizarre that she would leave like this. Ironically she left while I was out knocking on doors trying to find a lost terrier's home. Luckily for him I was successful. I can only hope someone finds Min-Mei as well.

Update on Old, lost, scared!! The happy ending!

The little dog’s name is CoCo, and he is on his way home, as we speak. A neighbor of his owners saw the flyer at the post office. They called, and came right out to get him. They said they talked to the police, and drove around looking for him with no luck. (I know that feeling) If you can imagine a dog saying “Whew !” while wiping his brow, that’s what the relief in Coco’s eyes reminded me of. A totally different dog ..happy, unworried and relieved. I might add that they had a big ginger cat in the car with them that Coco was also glad to see. Thanks to each and all for your support and suggestions. Wish more lost dog stories could end so well !! Now I’ll go retrieve my flyers… (with a happy heart)

Old, lost and scared. Can't find his way home.

This poor old guy was staggering north on FM1553 yesterday, Mar 5, 2010. He has a once-red collar. but no tags. He’s been on the road for a while – is very thin, very tired, very weak and very lost. He’s been injured, probably by a car, on his right hip. His ears in need of medication, too. I talked him into letting me bring him home, but he escaped overnight. I have been looking for him today with no luck. At least he had food, clean water and a place to rest for a while – but he needs help. If his owner can’t be found, I’ll take care of him..if I can find him.

Missing, owner needs closure, offers reward

I live in Bonham near121 and 56. I lost both of them around Thanksgiving when my parent's didn't shut the door all the way and they got out. They're both super friendly with people, other dogs, and cats. They had collars on. Both have freckled nose, easy to identify.

Injured puppy found on 1553 near Grove Hill Cem.

My daughter found this puppy out in the middle of the road on 1553 near the Grove Hill Cemetery. It had been struck by a car. The vet said that she is over all in very good condition after her ordeal. She has a spinal injury that the vet thinks will keep her from being a very energetic dog and yet she runs around and scampers. She seems used to being indoors and she is well on her way to being house trained. (She is on a steroid and just can't go all night without going pee.) She is about 5 to 6 months old and she weighs about 9 pounds. She looks a little bit like a Jack Russel in the face. She is really really sweet but we cannot keep her. We have a very small house and we have an indoor Great Dane. He is all the indoor dog we can handle. We would like to find this little girl a good loving home. If you need a dog that will be a good companion then this could be the one. We just want her to go to a good loving home. Thanks, james@ingramandfriends.com James Ingram Ingram And Friends.com

Little Sheltie is scared and needs help getting home

I have a missing Sheltie - actually in Hunt county, but in case he makes his way up into Fannin County, I'm trying to get the word out everywhere I can. I was actually dog sitting so I don't have a photo. I had only had the animal 24 hours. I was working on a farm in Celeste, and after four hours of staying close by, one of the sheltie's I'm watching took off. He's medium size, if I had to guess, about 35 pounds. He has a dark face and dark fur down his back, but otherwise looks like Lassie. He answers to the name of Rennie, but he is shy and skittish. He was last spotted on 1089 in Hunt County Saturday night 10:30pm (I was there and called him but he wouldn't even come to me - he took off into the darkness). If anyone thinks they may have spotted him or found him, I can be contacted at librariansunshine@yahoo.com or 903-813-2559. Thanks.

Minature Dachhound posted below has been found

Offering a $100 reward by way of a sign in her front yard gave the person who took her dog the incentive to return it. Sadly, for some people, money means more than the safety of little pets and owners who grieve when they are lost. One has to wonder what kind of life the puppy would have had with people like that. Glad he's home, Lori......... Pat

Missing Pyranese is back home

update and final report on chocolate lab found in Bonham

This is a message from Mary K. Davis of Bonham where the chocolate lab took refuge. How merciful God is to have sent this dog to Mary, one of Bonham's unsung Animal Angels: In a message dated 6/11/2009 1:57:49 P.M. Central Daylight Time, melkdav@gmail.com writes: My grandson Jarod and I took turns last night keeping her company, but by 3am we couldn't stay awake, and she was resting comfortably. we both went to bed. I was up again just before 8. When I went in to check on her, the entire floor of our laundry room was soaked with her blood. We cleaned her up and and the laundry room so our other dogs could go out to do their morning business. We through some clothes on and put her in our station wagon and headed for Ardmore, OK to Dr. Freida's. This loving and beautiful old dog had terminal cancer that had invaded her entire GI track. She was severely anemic due to the blood loss. She could no longer eat. We bid her farewell and petted her until her spirit left her body. We had a funeral for her and buried her in our side yard, entrusting her soul to the Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Artemis, Patroness of all good dogs. I only knew her for 14 hours, but her loss is terrible. I so wish I had known her in her full health and joy. I am so glad she found us at the last. She did not deserve to be turned out into the storm to die alone. Mary

Bonham - emergency alert - chocolate lab found

During the storm 2 nights ago, a female chocolate lab wearing a leather collar (no tag) took shelter on the front porch of a lady's house, running inside the moment someone in the house opened the door. She appears to be an elderly dog with grey around her mouth and chin and obviously someone's cherished pet. This morning she appears to be ill and the rescuer stayed up with her all night to care for her. However, the owner of this dog needs to claim her and get vet care for her. If this is your dog, or if you know who owns a dog like this in Bonham, please respond so I can put you in touch with the rescuer

yellow lab shot in the leg, but rescued

Just spoke with a coworker who lives on 1553; he had both of these dogs come onto his property and has "adopted" the yellow lab. It had, in fact, been shot in the leg and he has already taken it to the vet for a lengthy treatment yesterday as the bone is broken in several places from the gunshot. My coworker assumes that the black dog has been in the wild a lot longer than the lab as he is unapproachable although he keeps showing up on my friend's property to eat food left for him. Just wanted to let you all know that the lab is out of harm's way.

Texas Penal Code, Title 9, Chapter 42 shooting and poisoning animals

It is a state jail felony for your neighbor if she is convicted of shooting or poisoning animals that don't belong to her. I just today attended a seminar in Longview presented by the Texas Dept. of State Health Services and the Longview Animal Control agency where these civil and penal codes were explained, followed by a mock trial: Interesting and workable if victims (owners of the animals) are willing to document it and report it. Outside of the city limits, the charge can be taken to the Sheriff's Department. If you take a copy of the law being violated to the Sheriff, he is obligated to pursue it. When the case goes to trial, it will be The People (not the individual filing the complaint) vs Mrs. Xxx. That individual serves as a witness for the prosecution. So what are we waiting for? Even if it takes 2 years to get into the court, it is on her record that she has been charged for a state jail felony and is awaiting trial. Imagine trying to get a job, apply for insurance, or buy a car with that on your record.
