Sadie's New Leash On Life Dog Trapping

21/09/2025

HAPPY UPDATE!

We brought the dog that had been wandering a large area in Harpursville, for the pas week plus, to safety last night!

We learned he had been returning to a house frequently and food and water was set out. We then brought a trap, which was held open, and started feeding him in there.

Last night the trap was set and he went in around 12:30 am. As it turns out, he is a very sweet dog and was just very,, very scared.

FANTASTIC NEWS!

We trapped Bonnie who has missing for 11 days in Port Dickinson this morning!

She had found safety on the river side of the floodwall, which was very good. We set a trap which was held open to acclimate her to the trap. It was there several days and she never made to it.

Last Sunday we decided to set a feeding station further south and we moved the camera from the trap to the new feeding station. We left the trap held open .

She found the second feeding station later that day so we went to move the trap to that area. As we got to the top of the floodwall what did we see???
Bonnie INSIDE the trap resting (almost asleep) after eating the food!!!

We waited a bit to see what she would do and figure out what we should do. She ended up getting up and walking away.

We freshened the food and set the trap to trip. We felt pretty confident she would return. Nope...she did not.

The last sighting was on Sunday night on a home security camera. To be honest, I was getting a bit concerned that she left the area or something happened to her.

Yesterday, we added another feeding station even further south. The only animal to find that was a deer.

I was shocked and unbelievably happy when she found the trap again this morning and went in!

She is now resting comfortably at home with her very relieved family.😊

FANTASTIC NEWS!

We brought the stray that had been wandering in Whitney Point since 7/20 to safety this evening!

She had been in the area of Hickory St (Rt 79) and on the opposite side of the river near the water treatment facility. There had only been a couple of sightings of her at that point.

A very kind couple who were very concerned about the dog contacted Dog Control. We were asked by Dog Control to assist because this was a very skittish dog and she ended up only coming out at night.

We started working on her on 8/6 and set up at the couple's house who were extremely helpful in putting food and water out for her. Unfortunately, she seemed to only show up at their house every 3 days or so. We set up at the water treatment facility and saw she showed up every night.

We acclimated her to the trap for a couple of days and decided to set it this evening. She was IN the trap within a half hour of the trap being set! She normally would show up around 1 am and a couple other times during the night but tonight it was 9 pm so that was nice was didn't have to do a middle of the night run.

We were contacted about a scared 5 month old Lab mix who managed to get away as she arrived at her new home in the City of Binghamton yesterday.

Fortunately, she stuck close to the area but would run into a large brushy area if anyone approached. The new owner was very smart and understood it was extremely unlikely that she could be caught and reached out for assistance. They had set food and water out for her and saw her come out of the brush a couple of times today but she would then leave.

We set up this evening and felt she was likely keeping an eye on us from the safety of the brush. She went into to trap within an hour of it being set!

We hope she has a wonderful, safe new life!

SIGHTINGS NEEDED ‼️

We have not had any sightings of Piper since 7/24 when she was seen in the area of North St on the ENDICOTT/ENDWELL border during the night.

Please spread the word and ask people to check home security cameras to see if she passed through the area. Many times, lost dogs will fine areas where outdoor cats are fed.
