❤️❤️❤️❤️BELLA IS SAFE AND SECURE

After distributing flyers they got a call that Bella was seen at the end of Penny Ln. Not only was she seen once but several times at the same house They went and sat in the yard for hours but she didn’t come back. The homeowner said you can do you whatever you need to do, my yard is your yard until your baby is home.

We discussed bringing their other dog for this morning. They walked and sat, still nothing.
Then they walked away from the house, a call came and she was back so they went back and sat again. Not a minute later Bella comes crawling to her Momma !!

Awareness, posters and flyers, Calming signals, patience and a lot of mosquito bites and Bella is HOME SAFE!!!

💞WTG FURPAWRENTS YOU ROCKED IT !!!💞

Thank you to James for being so kind and not trying to catch Bella and letting the owners do what they needed.

Thank you volunteer for printing and cutting she flyers, getting them the poster supplies and working with them with guidance on how to approach Bella.

❤️❤️Welcome home Sweet Maggie❤️❤️

A month ago, we were called about a roaming boxer that no one could get ahold of. Our Tweed volunteer was quick to respond to the area to investigate. We requested to put cameras and a feeding station on a property that she was being seen on but were never given permission.

We checked other areas but she was not being seen again. Several locals had our number if she was to turn up

Last week a post was made with a picture of a very skinny dog that seemed to be similar to the boxer we had been searching for a few weeks earlier. We weren’t positive it was the same one as the first sighting picture was at a distance and we couldn’t get a good look at the collar.

Our volunteer was out again to investigate and received a sighting right when she was in the area. Walking down the road she saw the dog turn into the woods. Knowing not to follow for fear of pushing her away she backed off and spoke to folks on the street. They had seen her a few times at different houses and their street Facebook group were wondering whose dog it was.

While all of this was going on, a neighbour of the owner of Maggie saw our post and left a note for him to call our volunteer as she thought it looked like his missing boxer. He is not on Facebook. John and our volunteer met and she showed him photos of the roaming dog. With that we were able to ascertain that it was indeed his dog, the same one spotted a month ago and just recently. She had lost a substantial amount of weight.

At this time one of the homeowners said she had been there several times so it was determined to utilize this home as the camera and feeding station setup. It was very important that Linda, the homeowner, follow feeding instructions. Being this emaciated and getting too much food at once after not having proper nutrition could cause digestive disruption and even death. Linda fed her small amounts 3 times a day, and sometimes 4.

Since our smaller trap, Legend, was being utilized north of Madoc for the conditioning of a stray/dumped dog (Rogue, now secured) we were able to bring in Black Diamond, a larger version of Legend. This was set up on Saturday evening, Maggie went all the way in a few times on Sunday so we didn’t want to delay any further. Plans were made for trap watch on Monday.

She came to eat her early morning meal around 4:30am, we set up the trap watch at 1:30pm with the food that we had brought and waited in the car……… No sign of her and then Linda came home from work and we asked her to do her normal routine of feeding and in no time, Maggie was strutting her stuff towards the trap. She circled the trap a few times, checked out the car at the far end of the driveway (us) then went for the jackpot !! Gotcha baby girl. You no longer have to fight to survive.

You will see in the photos that John does not go directly into the trap. Maggie needs to smell him to recognize him so we asked that he just be with her while her senses kicked in. She is a 14 year old boxer that has been surviving on her own for a month. She only took a short minute to recognize him but remember, she is tired, hungry and overwhelmed and won’t be doing cartwheels.

Big thanks to Linda and her husband for allowing the disruption to their property and for following strict guidelines on feeding.

Thank you to the volunteer in Tweed for investigating and leading this secure. Great Job!!

Thank you to the volunteers for sitting in your hot cars on trap watch.

Thank you to the community for recognizing that this dog needed help and allowing us to do what we do.

❤️❤️ROGUE NO MORE❤️❤️
Rogue is roaming no more

This beautiful pup came to our attention via a Facebook post at the beginning of April. She was seen on the side of the road and no one could get near her. Was she dumped? Did she get loose? No one knew. We asked questions and started an investigation….then she disappeared. This had us thinking she was a local dog that had been hanging out for a few days.

Fast forward to May/June and sightings started coming in again. We now knew for sure that she was not someone’s dog but a stray that needed us and the community she was roaming in. People had tried to catch her but she evaded everyone.

Being out past Madoc it was hard for us to get to so the sightings from the community were amazing in helping us keep track of her. A couple volunteers headed to a house that had let us know she was playing with their dog and spending time lazing in their back field. She would sleep in the shade of the woods and a woodpile but perk up whenever anyone came near. She would then quickly disappear into the adjoining woods.

The volunteers laid several scent trails from different directions towards an area we would be setting our trap up. A camera was set on the feeding station. Then the waiting began.

It actually didn’t take long for her to find the food as it was near where she hung out but we were still getting sightings all along Cooper Rd, Lingham Lake Rd and as far south as Queensborough Rd so we were unsure if we were in the right spot for a trap.

The volunteers continued investigating while Rogue continued to be fed. Daily interactions with an amazing local, Joe, made it clear that we were in fact in the right spot to trap her. Joe’s dog Rocco was becoming friends with Rogue and would come out when they refilled the feeding station. We were an hour away so he agreed without hesitation to assist until she was caught.

Joe fed Rogue morning and night for days and when the trap was brought to the area for conditioning, he did the same. He followed instructions on how to condition her to the trap as she was super wary of it. We did have some set backs as she was so scared of everything, except Rocco Rogue would come out and play with Rocco when Joe would go to feed but never let Joe near her. They did try to get her to follow them to their house but she always stopped in the field.

Trap night was close and the camera stopped working, sigh, isn’t that always the way it goes with technology. We went a day without eyes but decided to set the trap watch knowing she was following a decent schedule. The team was great at troubleshooting and got the camera working just prior to the trap being set.

The trap and they removed themselves for the stakeout !

The trap closed !!!

We caught some crows !! yippee !!
A reset had to happen quickly. Did Rogue hear the bang of the trap closing?

It was reset and they waited but she was nowhere to be seen and it was past her normal feeding time. We asked Joe to come out with Rocco, they did a trip around the field and Rogue came bounding out of the woods just after they left. It worked!!
Now will she go in the trap like she had two days before????

YES YES YES

The biggest thank you to Joe as we would not have been able to do this without your assistance in the feeding and conditioning stages of this. Rogue owes you big time !! I know Rocco will miss her but she is out of danger now.

Thank you to everyone that texted, called and messaged with sightings of Rogue. She was in the right community to be saved. No one tried to catch her so that helped her feel safe and able to roam freely.

As always, a huge thank you to our volunteers that took the time to travel so far out of town on several occasions, liaise with locals and do the trap watches. We can’t do this without you.

‼️UPDATE FOR ROAMING ROGUE, COOPER RD, MADOC JUN 12/25
Roaming Since at least beginning of April.

🛑DO NOT FEED HER OR PUT FOOD OUT
🛑DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SECURE HER

Conditioning has been slow but we have finally made progress towards the trap.
She is super sensitive, wary and notices small changes.

The homeowner has been outstanding on doing the refilling of the feeding station and moving the bowls to strategic spots in and out of the trap.

She would not go all the way in the trap when the bowl was in the back (as seen in the second picture) so we moved it to the front and have been moving it incrementally further in as she gets used to that.

Please continue to message our page or text 613-847-4277 with sightings. We have found out she has a large loop that she travels but she ends up coming back for food in the evening.
