** Update: Gracie is safe!!

Gracie is an adult, Golden Retriever missing in Wrenshall/Holyoke, MN. Gracie is cold, scared, and running around seeking a safe and warm place to go. Gracie is greatly missed by her mom who has done an amazing job getting fliers out and letting the neighborhood know to keep an eye out for her. Please quietly check your properties: under decks, in garages, in window wells, anywhere a lost pup could hide. If you have security or trail cameras, check those too! If you see Gracie, do not chase, follow, yell, or attempt to catch her, just stop moving and call with sighting details. Gracie’s family is doing everything we have advised to bring her home safely. Please share this post to help with awareness.

Moose and his fur sibling were outdoors on a potty break in rural Palisade, MN when they went missing. When their human went to get them, Keni (sibling dog) was there wet and shaking but Moose was nowhere to be seen. The family assumed that both had fallen in the river and that Moose didn't make it out however Moose was seen on a trail cam 8 miles upstream! We'd love to get this survivor back home to his family. If you see Moose please call with sighting details.

** Update: Walter was found but needs your prayers. He is ill and getting IV's at the vet. The family is with him.

Walter is a very handsome GSD who went missing from his rural home near Remer, MN. He and his fur siblings were outdoors, when called to come in Walter stood for a moment and then very unexpectedly bolted away. The family has found tracks that could be Walters and we do have a plan in place. This guy is much loved and missed by his family. If you see him, please ignore him and call with sighting details.

Free-roaming dogs can get into trouble. We always advise visually checking neighbors' window wells and uncovered holes for missing dogs. Many times, they will remain silent, instinctively reluctant to reveal their location to potential predators. So when you're searching for a lost dog, be sure to look down.
