A Good Friend needs some help..

SteveA · 09-17-2009, 06:11 PM

Thanks Folks,

No new info as of today.

RS... Lisa reads this site.. so maybe she already has or will get Jack up on those sites.

Jeff... thanks.. you are a good guy, even tho you are a far right wing wacko! (Just kidding folks! Jeff's only Semi far right wing. He does have a Sarah Palin autographed picture tho...)

Seriously.. this site does lot's of great things.. it would be really great if we could help find Jack.

PS... if your tempted to send me nasty mail about the comment to Pineedles.. skip it, it's just a long running joke between two friends..

SteveA,

A couple of times, I wanted to post to ask if there was an update...had Jack been found? But, I knew you would log on with an update. I am sorry that the update says he is still missing.

I am optimisitic that he will be found. He is a good looking (and big) dog. He cannot go missing for too much longer.

I look forward to your next post....telling us that Jack is home. Pass along all of our best wishes to your friend Lisa and her family.

I keep reading this hoping to read that Jack has been found, too. It is only a matter of time if he has been seen by others.

As an animal lover, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

I wonder if Jack is friendly. Would he approach people he sees or just run away? He certanly stands out and I'm shocked nobody has noticed him roaming around looking lost. I really want to read that he's gotten home...

mcdude · 09-22-2009, 08:48 AM

Saturday afternoon, while cruising home the LONG way from errands I saw tons of LOST DOG signs on all the back roads in Gilmanton over towards the back of Sunset Lake, Crystal Lake and Place's Mill Road. someone has gone to a lot of effort. I kept my eyes peeled but no luck. Amazing that Jack actually made it up and over the Belknap Mt. Range. It's very rough terrain.

eillac@dow · 09-29-2009, 10:49 PM

Any word on Jack?

Has that big boy decided to come home?

I am guessing if he is anything like my baby boy...he must of ate the couch, the laundry, the chair, the trash, the rug...and figures he is in the dog house.

Waiting to hear good news!

Keep us posted!

Argie's Wife · 09-30-2009, 10:50 AM

Just got back from LR Vet Hospital in Gilford and the signs are still up.

Poor Jack! And poor Jack's parents!!!

I'll try to get an update and post.

Lakesrider · 10-10-2009, 08:30 PM

Well? still nothing on Jack?

eillac@dow · 10-21-2009, 11:03 PM

So has that handsome boy Jack come home yet?

I sure hope so.....Not in the area, but for those who are keep the word and pics out there.

Thanks.....eillac@dow

I came on tonight just to see if Jack has been found. He's still being prayed for.

dpg · 10-26-2009, 07:39 AM

I'm guessing not we probably would of heard.

gravy boat · 10-26-2009, 01:43 PM

No, nothing yet. No sightings for weeks, either. ;-(

My hope is that he was taken in and is enjoying life by a warm fire with plenty of love and treats.

GFP · 10-26-2009, 10:11 PM

I saw an ad in the NH Sunday News for Jack, and have been thinking that someone must have taken him in. Not many dogs are wandering around loose these days, and there are many dog lovers to come to the rescue.

Lucky1 · 10-27-2009, 12:14 AM

Would any station do one do you think? Are there children missing him? People do not like to see children crying and being sad etc if there are. Not that we do not count just as much. Beautiful dog and not a common breed or at least I do not know it. So someone may have dognapped but I hope not. Will keep fingers crossed for safe return.

What a great idea!

I just sent a "story idea" to WMUR. I included a link to this thread.

Maybe if they got a bunch of requests for a story, they would do one.

Here is the link to the "Contact Us" for WMUR.

RLW · 11-04-2009, 02:19 PM

I keep seeing the lost dogs signs in the Gilmanton area and often wonder if the dog has ever been found. Can anyone update us as to how things stand now with the locating of the dog???

SteveA · 11-04-2009, 08:01 PM

I spoke with Lisa tonight.

"No Good News but No Bad News"

They have had a number of sightings, but each one has turned out to be a Great Pyrenees that lived in the area.They have contacted 90% of the vets in NH and they are on the lookout. Jack is "chipped" so any shelter that got him would check, as they would for any dog or cat that comes in as a stray.

They have also contacted all of the Public Works and Highway Departments to make them aware of Jack, should they find a "hit" dog that matches his picture.

Lisa is starting to lean to the possibility that he was taken by someone that either flat out stole him, or just took him in as a stray. She is still hopeful that he will be located.

She does check this site and is aware of everyones concern and greatly appreciates it. She has also had lots of feedback from her posts on Craigs List, many folks are looking. She is still hopeful.
