Thank you so much everyone.
I haven't read all the replies yet, but I wanted to get on here and post the good news!!!
Maddie is asleep at my feet.
After I posted this thread, we were back out looking. In the last 1 1/2 hours or so we've been getting TONS of calls of people seeing her. She was ALL over the place. We'd be in one person's yard, then someone else would call from 5 blocks away saying she was there! Finally, Sherry Lynn and I split up and I was walking up some giant disgusting spider web filled hill haha. I almost turned around and went back, but I figured "Just keep going. It's worth a shot!" So I hadn't gone 3 more feet when I felt something jumping on my leg! I thought it was some kind of animal I DIDN'T want to run into, so I freaked a little haha. I looked down and saw Maddie and I kind of screamed.
She took off again because it scared her, but I called her and she came right to me. Then I screamed I think the loudest I've ever screamed "I've got her!!" lol. I was in tears.
Maddie was covered in burrs and mats. So Sherry Lynn and I just spent a good amount of time cutting those out and what not.
I am so relieved. and I am so grateful. and I never want to see a tree again haha (I spent most of the time in woods without paths. so I'm kinda scraped up
) We're all a bit ticked at her (Maddie), but she's just so darn cute we can't stay mad.
I'm still staying the night at Sherry Lynn's to make sure Maddie is comfy. then in the morning I'll be joining my parents and brother to enjoy the rest of my vacation.
