In November 2010 I posted my dog's picture on Petfinder when a neighbor let my dog out of our back yard fence and he ran away. Being a rescue dog from a shelter, he is very afraid a people. I posted signs in a 12 mile radius from my house, consulted psychics, and used my facebook account to spread the word about my dog. After 4 months I gave up hope. We had no sightings, and we had the worst winter weather on record. Over 42 inches of snow! Another woman was looking for her missing dog, when she got a call that a dog was seen at a local cemetery(10 miles from my home.) She went to the cemetery and took a picture with her phone-it wasn't her dog but the crew there said they had been feeding him since Thanksgiving. She went on petfinder and found my picture of Charlie. I met her at the cemetery and brought my dog home! Over the past 4 months I have been looking for any signs that my dog was out there. I am thankful Sue went on the site and found my ad.
A very happy tail!!!

Yes! I got lots of barks and kisses! At the cemetery we brought our lab to help get him out of the hole-when they saw each other there was a lot of tail wagging too. The most emotional part for me was when my daughters saw him, he was very excited to see them.

Wow, that is absolutely amazing! So glad he is back home with you now. And so happy those people took the care to at least feed him.
