Lost Dog: Help Needed

[nrh0011]

I lost my male dog today. He had a seizure and when he came to he ran off from us. I have not been able to catch him since. To make matters worse, my gps collar has not worked since the location of the seizure. He was last seen near 1214 Oscar Walton rd. Tignall, GA 30668.

The dog’s name is Winston but he may be unresponsive to it, last I saw him he acted like he didn’t know who I was and I’ve had him from a pup. He is a 50 lb German Wirehaired Pointer. My contact info is on his collar, he is microchipped, and UTD on all shots. $1000 reward for return of the dog.

Thanks,

Hope you find him. Those seizures are devastating to a dog and it’s owner. I had an English pointer that had them.

Very sad news. I hope he will make his way home to you. Seizures are very disorientating and scary to a dog just like they are to people.

I do not do FaceBook but I know that there are groups in nearly every area of the country that are all about helping lost/found dogs. There are also national level websites that do the same and are searchable by community. Local animal shelters and rescue groups can also be a great help. The last time a neighbor lost his dog my wife was able to learn that someone had already found it and was looking for the owner before the owner knew the dog was missing.

Good luck and microchips pay off. I hope he has one.

Hate to hear it, All I can suggest is talk to everyone and tell them he's missing. Post signs if you can, If there is a local printer have them print fliers (they may do it for free ours did, he is an animal lover). Word of mouth does wonders, and as others said the social media stuff works too, there seems to be groups for everything and all locales.

I have a lot of friends in that area, I shared it on my Facebook page.
best of luck, I know that has to be hard.

Haven’t caught him yet. He was last seen around 5 pm this afternoon in the Broad River Campground on 79 near Tignall, GA. Lots of folks looking for him, he still isn’t acting like himself. Hoping for the best and that he comes to tomorrow. Thanks to all of you.

I had the Wilkes county humane society post it to their Facebook page here and it’s gained some traction.

Praying you find Winston today and he is doing well.

Good luck on getting your Dog back, I know I would be sick to death had I lost one of mine over the years of living with them.

 

[nrh0011]

Thanks everyone. Still no sign of him

Winston has been found and his headed my direction. Thank you all, getting him to a vet tmr. He was found 20 miles from where I lost him and crossed the broad river into Elberton.
