 
2/20/08 Riley spent 9 days lost in the woods in Monroe. This beautiful Greater Swiss Mountain dog was seen several times the first 4 days she went missing but sadly, could not be caught. Hope was starting to wear thin as the community continued to search and watch for her. She was finally spotted off Cin-Day Rd. Riley endured bitter cold, winds, snow & ice. She shared the woods with many deer, ground hogs, squirrels and skunks. Coyotes have also been seen in the region. A trip to the vet revealed Riley had lost 20lbs and was quite dehydrated. She also has some cuts to her paws and a bit of frost bite to her ears, not to mention many burrs and of course, she met a skunk along the way! But the vet thinks she will be just fine. Thanks to all in Monroe who took the time and effort to spread the word and search the surrounding areas. Welcome home Riley!! |
