This is an email that I wish I didn't have to make!! Salsa my red merle female has been missing since Friday night January 23/04 at 9:30 from the Roachville/Sussex New Brunswick area. She was staying with Phyllis for a sleep over, her son let Salsa out to go to the bathroom she spooked and wouldn't come. We have flyers up all around Sussex, her lost ad is in the newspaper, the radio stations have been contacted, but most will not air it, only keep the information on file. Please spread the word, she could have been picked up?? We have had only one sighting on Friday night at 10:00.

And now for a couple of ...

The owner of the puppy that was found Near Dundalk, Ontario has been found!

Ted wrote "My cousin, who lives where the puppy was found, called me Wednesday night to say that there was an ad in the Flesherton Advance newspaper
about a lost 4-month old Australian Shepherd puppy. This morning, I talked to the woman who placed the ad. I asked her to send me a picture,
to make sure we were talking about the same dog.

The dog in the picture is younger and the colouring has changed a bit,
but the markings around the eyes and forehead confirm in my mind that this is the woman's dog.

We are arranging to return the puppy, whose name is Emma, tomorrow.

Thank you everybody for helping to find this puppy's rightful owner!"

Puppy, who turned out to be Emma, was found wandering on private property 10-12 km north of intersection of County Road 9 (Dundalk Rd) & Hwy 10 near Dundalk, ON

First seen on Friday, February 9, 2008

About 5-6 months old female

Possibly Australian Shepherd, no collar or microchip

White/grey body, black spots & ears, tan face & legs, soft long coat

Friendly, playful, energetic, intelligent

Current staying in Guelph, ON

After six days "lost" from their home in Castleton, Ontario area (near Cobourg & Trenton)the boys are safely back home!

Their "Mom" wrote "got a call from the shelter that a man had them, got them back this morning"!

We'd advised her to notify all the shelters, Human Society, newspapers, radio stations, put up fliers, and we posted them on this Aussie Rescue website...obviously it worked!!!!

Oz: Blue merle male with brown eyes, docked tail, neutered and microchipped. Oz is 3 years and 55lbs, very healthy, agile and active. His face was symmetrical, very much the same on both sides.

Tazzy: 5 month old blue merle male with brown eyes, docked tail and unaltered as owners were waiting till over 6 months. He is also microchipped and will possibly have on an invisible fence collar. Taz weighs 30 lbs, and right now has black freckles on his face and pink on his nose, he is tall and lanky.

The children were very upset as are the adults of the family and they are very glad to have their boys home again! Many thanks to everyone who helped return Oz and Tazzy to their family!

Badger
Leslieville, Alberta ~ March 2006

I've got the jail-house blues, BUT...
I'm such a handsome boy that my Aussie Rescue person remembered me from when I
was a pup with her friend (my breeder), & between them they tracked down my "Dad"!
I'm back home in safer conditions so I don't wander off again!

Thanks to every who helped reunite me and my Dad!

With many thanks to David Lyon for his care and concern, we're happy to report that Daisy has been reunited with her family!

Thank you David, you're wonderful!!!

Stolen - Innisfail, Alberta
September 30th, 2004
WILLY IS HOME!! Missing for a week and dropped off less than one day after being posted on the Aussie Rescue website!

Willy is a trained hearing dog for his owner and is a well loved part of the family!
We are very happy for Willy, Eric & Shirley and wish them all the best!
Shirley credits the wonderful Aussie community with helping them get Willy back...she thinks that the website posting (shown below for informational purposes) plus the ad in the central Alberta paper, lots of posters with Willy's photo and word of mouth scared whomever stole Willy and they dropped him off at home at 6:30 Thursday morning, exactly one week after he was stolen!
Below is the posting we put on the website and we hope it helps anyone trying to do a posting for a lost dog:
The photo above was used with the place Willy was missing from and the date of the posting...
Willy was stolen from our yard this morning

Male Red Tri Australian Shepherd - white collar mane marking does not go all the way around his neck on his left side
3 years old
23 inches tall, approximately 60 pounds
5" docked tail & was given a partial scissors body clip in June but his mane was left alone...so all that white hair is very full.
fussy eater (see info below)
quiet and a little shy

He will not eat anything, will probably starve to death, pukes if upset and very loose bowls if he eats something that upsets him, he is on Iams chunks with some bread and some milk and some water and a little barbequed sausage. This is all he eats and the only way he will eat it.
He does not like traffic, trained to NEVER leave the yard, will high tail it to the house RIGHT now even if I called him out the gate. Solid on that, so whom ever took him came into the yard. Eric was right there at the time, blowing out water lines so he did not hear anything at all, no barking etc. I put him out at 9 am after we had done our morning 7am chores and came back in. When Eric came in at 10 am (one hour) he was gone! He does not live outside.
Please pass this onto everyone you know, someone has to know where he is. Please help us find him.
Eric & Shirley also offered a $500.00 REWARD for information leading to the arrest of the person who stole Willy from their yard. They did this at the suggestion of the RCMP detachment and they think that this also helped make the dog-nappers realize that Willy wasn't just some "farm dog", he was a well loved member of the family. In fact so well loved that his owners were going to sell a prized piece of silver in order to post the reward!!!
