LOST DOGS in Pennsylvania -- Off I-81, Mahanoy City Exit 131B
On Monday all of my dogs got out, and a fostered beagle for Joyce Urban and Forgotten Friends Rescue escaped as well. They all came back except for my Springer/beagle mix, and Joyce's beagle. As we all know, when a beagle's nose works, their brain stops, and they can certainly outrun this fat lady! It's been such a long winter and the bunnies are out all over which makes these beagles go crazy wanting to chase them. Living right off I-81 at the Mahanoy City Exit, Exit 131B, they could easily have been picked up by someone and taken for a ride elsewhere.
My husband and I drove all the local roads looking for them, but with ALL mountains everywhere around, they could have doubled back and gone anywhere. I'm getting posters made up, placed ads in local newspapers, will have their pics, info on a local TV station bulletin board, called local shelters, Dog Enforcement Officers, local police departments, so I'm doing just about everything I can think of. As soon as I get my posters, I'll mail a poster to each Vet/Hosp/Clinic in the surrounding areas and post them to wherever will allow me to place them.
Say a prayer for Mason, Joyce's beagle who had been rescued from Marion County, West Virginia, with a fractured pelvis, ribs, and a broken leg after being hit by a car there. He's a tri-color, neutered, male, who holds his right, back leg up since his accident. Taz is a black/white, male, Springer/beagle mix, neutered, friendly boy who'll go with anyone when he's tired.
I'll be happy to send the pictures to anywhere/anyone to keep their eyes open for them. If seen, call 570-773-3077.
