PENNY IS HOME!!!!!!!! Stolen Dog No Longer!!!!!!!!
Writing by Josh Barry on Sunday, 15 of June , 2008 at 5:41 pm
After 12 days of running in the woods she was finally spotted and tracked down.
The same people that spotted her about 10 days ago are the same ones that caught her. I had put Penny's kennel in their back yard after they saw her the first time hoping she would be smart enough to stay around houses and water since there is a big pond and plenty of fresh water running in streams around that neighborhood. My theory proved right thankfully.
There is a side story to this though which is equally impressive. The nice people who saw Penny the first time, Cindy Lashinsky and Ben Fiereer saw her again yesterday. Ben said he spotted her way up on the hill moving around and decided (with some help from Cindy) to go running after her up the hill and through the woods.
Ben gave chase and Penny ran from him but eventually after realizing that Ben wasn't a threat AND seeing their yellow lab nearby decided to turn aruond and headed right for their dog.
They were so nice guys. Really. I came to see penny and they had already removed several ticks from Penny and gave me the rundown of all the things I'll need to do to get her healthy again and up to speed health-wise. She handed me shampoo, phone numbers for vets, a tick removing kit (which I am still using ) and a new collar for Penny. I think Cindy said she is an animal trainer so her knowledge on veterinary medicine seemed to be really extensive.
It was meant to be. They took such good care of her in such a short amount of time. I'm glad they found her.
Here is Penny with her welcome home present after her much needed bath.

Aw, so glad to hear this happy ending!
Our last husky used to take off when she was a pup (pre-invisible fence), and we were lucky that she was never gone such a long time, though she gave us quite a few scares. You must feel such relief.
