This beautiful yellow lab was safely trapped last night. She has been on the run for over 2 months, along with a silver lab and a black lab in the Conewango Valley NY area . All females, we can only assume that they were dumped together. Carla Hartman the DCO for that area, successfully trapped the black lab and the silver lab. But when the yellow lab went in the trap, she was able to back out before the door came down, causing her to run, scared and leave the area. So approximately a month went by without any sightings, and then, Adam Hill put a post on facebook, showing her on a hillside eating on a deer carcass. Once I heard that she has backed out of a trap, I reached out to Carla and offered my services with our missy trap. Carla was canvassing the area, talking to neighbors to see if they had seen her, and she found someone who had seen her several times on his property. I had asked Carla
to set up a food station on this property so we could get her to stay there until I could get out there. So when they checked the next morning, the food was gone. And they looked to the left and saw her laying in a field, she spotted them, she got up and took off across the road and back Into the woods. I went out a few hours later, then and we built the missy trap.
And about 10:40 pm, after circling the trap and eating all the scraps outside for about 10 minutes. She got up enough nerve to go in the trap. The dog is now with Carla, the DCO. She has been reunited with the silver lab Which Carla still has and I think this will make they're rehabilitation, go a little smoother. Thank you Carla, for taking in these strays and rehabilitating them and finding them new homes ❤️. Thank you to Chris ,her husband for helping me set up and tear down the missy trap ,much appreciated, and thank you to the homeowners Randy and Kevin who graciously let us set up our trap on their property ❤️ See video in the comments. Your lonely days in the woods, our over, sweetheart, hopefully you are on your way to a better life 🙏🐾
