Finding Doug the Dog

After 31 days on the loose, Doug has been caught and is safe at home!

Tonight, her owner's mom Katrina, Balynda Brown and Sarah Seeley worked together and caught her without a trap! It was a different, risky type of rescue but it worked! She was caught in the dark, between a retaining wall and fence - a width of approximately
18 - 24 inches.

Katrina sang familiar words and used calming signals to lure Doug to her. When Doug recognized her, she ran over and gave Katrina kisses and wolfed down a bowl of chicken!

It's been a real team effort with Balynda's scent tracking dogs (Bravo and Preacher) coming out to Fuquay 2 times to track for hours through woods, swampy areas, etc. Steve and Melissa handing out flyers to businesses and posting flyers. And, Vee was busy moving cameras and refilling food bowls! Thank you Carmen!

Thank you everyone for sharing this page and contacting Katrina with sightings. We love ya'll and couldn't have done this without you!!
