A hopeful sighting

We got a call last night from a man who said a dog matching Pugsley description has been hanging out in his neighborhood for the last two weeks or so. He couldn't talk much then, but we met up with him this morning and showed him Pugsley's picture. He does believe the dog he saw was Pugsley!!

We also talked to two other people in the area and they too think the dog that had been hanging out is Pugsley.

It was in a neighborhood we hadn't yet flyered, so we started working on that this morning. We also moved the traps from where they currently were over to that area. The person who called in the sighting as well as a neighbor across the street gave us permission to set the traps on their property and one of them is even able to monitor it for us!!

Mountain View Rd is the area where he has been seen. At the end of Mountain View Rd is a lot of wooded area. There is also a lot of wood and open space behind one of the rows of houses on Mountain View. It is possible he might be using those woods to hide in and only coming out for food and to get warm. One of the people, who house we set a trap on, said he likes to come up and find a sunny spot on the persons front porch or back deck.

The last time he was seen was Friday, so we are hoping he is still in the area. They said he sometimes hides over the weekend when more people are home. Anytime someone has tried to get near him, he runs.

Cross your fingers.
