My baby is missing. I dont know what to do!???

[sunshinnes]

Hi Gen, just checking in for updates, I can not imagine what you are going thru... I also would have to go check this out, seem's weird two lost yorkies found around the same time and the same distance!!! I hope this lady is lying because that means Cookie is safe and warm, and will find his way back in mommy's arms!!!!

[twahlstrand]

I will continue to says prayers for Cookies return, and light candles for him.

[rontiss1]

I pray for your baby's safe return. I couldnt even imagine what I would do. Beside going beserk. But prayer works wonders, and Im praying daily for cookie's safe return! I have a religious medal around my tiny Gina's neck and I am always watching her at the doggie park. She is so tiny anyone could snatch her. I watch her out of the corner of my eye. Boobah is just a wonderful lap dog. Sometimes she will get down and play with Gina. Sometimes I carry Boobah around the house in my arms, she loves that. God bless you, Gennel and I will light a candle for Cookie!

[Cookie2]

Thank you, prayers I think are the only thing that are keeping me partially sane. I have gone berzerk. Tonight I went to throw out some newspapers and I saw a little animal run across my neighbors yard and I went running calling out Cookie's name...it was a rabbit! I see him everywhere in my mind.
The saying " you dont know what you have until you lose it" is the plain truth. The only regret I dont have is that I know how much I spoiled him, I told him I loved him everyday, every morning he'd stay in my bed I go up to him and rub his belly and give him a bunch of little kisses and tell him Good Morning Baby. There are so many things I want to do right now that I wish I had 10 more clones of myself. Today I really had to just go home. I either slept really bad but my neck is stiff and now I have a really sharp pain from my neck down my right shoulder.

Keep Cookie in your prayers and dont forget him please. I will continue looking for him.

I just read through all 33 pages of this thread. There are simply no words to express what I'm feeling. I am sitting here with tears running down my face. I'm really quite at a loss for words - and can't even begin to know how you must feel in this heart wrenching situation.

Gen, I know you are doing your best to stay strong but please be sure to take care of yourself and your family. If you become mentally/physically exhausted, your search for Cookie will wane as well. You have been doing an absolutely amazing job in your search so far!

And, do know that although we all are miles apart, there are many, many, many strong and positive thoughts & prayers with you - just look at how many views this thread has received! I believe in positive energy - and you definitely have it coming your way! I just wish I could just step through this computer screen and join in and do something to help. But, geography aside, I'm definitely there with you in thought. You, your family - and Cookie - are all in my prayers.

Hey there, I am still thinking about , praying for, you and Cookie's reunion.
I'm with the others, I'd go check in person each and every "found" yorkie
even remotely close to your home. You just never know, you know?

She has many supporters here on YT and we are all concerned about Gen and Cookie's safe return.

If it were my dog, I would be doing exactly what Gen is doing. Do you really think the police are going to sit and wait for the girl to walk the dog? Do you think they can really get a search warrant to search her house? Really, what harm can be done if Gen just goes to see if its her dog?

Honestly, I've never felt the need to post a response such as this one until now. It really bothers me that you would ask or say these things when what Gen needs right now is positive thoughts and support.

Gen... I wish you the best of luck today. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that its Cookie! Please continue to keep us updated.

Well Lesley,
I was going to just let this go but I think you need some understanding on the above post.
Before you can even experience what Gen is going through, you have to know the experience. Gen is in a very frighten state at this time because she has lost her baby. I wasn't trying to be judgemental about Cookie just trying to clear her mind and think. I know she's been going through a very rough time and just wanted to help. I didn't want Gen to get hurt or in trouble if she took it upon herself.
I don't know how old you are, but it sure doesn't seem like you've really experienced life for what it is..... Their are hard times to face but with faith and letting God handle it for awhile helps.
If you knew anything about the law, you would know that Yorkie puppies can run into the thousands of dollars. When you have grand champions on both side, were talking big $$. Knowing this little guy, you can bet someone would take him, and this is grand thief. You really don't give the police enough credit for what they do. Have you ever watched the news and seen police officers and firemen rescue small pet. They would put themselves in danger just to save them. And you ask what the cops will do??
Gen, if your reading this, here's some information for you. A very good friend of mine knew this women that found a small dog. It was the cuties thing and she wanted to keep him. She told her, she had posted signs in our area and at the pet store to find the owner. Guess what! Signs were never posted. She now keeps this little one in her backyard as a playmate for her other dog. It happens Gen, so just keep thinking he's being taken care of for now and maybe one day he will run out and run home to you.

Hoping for Cookie's quick return home. I'll keep you in my prayers.

I may hate myself for even responding to this but, I too, have read all 33 pages of this....and I have to say to you that it only seems that maybe you live in an area where the police have time to put their time and efforts into finding a missing pet. There was no need questioning the other poster's age, because honestly, your perspective seems very young and naive. I know that if I lost my Poppy, I wouldn't be waiting for the police to find her because they certainly have much much more important things to do. It's nice to be optimistic, but calling someone out who is trying to help someone in the most realistic way possible is neglecting the point of this entire thread.


Gen, I have literally shed tears many times following this thread. I had a cat for 19 years of my life who was my everything prior to ever owning a dog.......and she got out of the house once and was missing for days. I was convinced I would never see her again, put up flyers, knocked on every neighbors door.......and by some sort of miracle I found her days later and she was lost and scared, and when she saw me she ran up into my arms. I'm crying again remembering that, as she has since passed........but if I were in your shoes, I would be doing exactly everything you are doing.

You have been in my thoughts every single day and I can't express enough how much I hope Cookie is found and returned. I sincerely hope that all of the thoughts and prayers you are receiving are somehow helping you to be a little stronger in this most difficult time.

[spiritwings1202]

Gen,
I sit here reading your post and always hoping for good news! I cry everytime I come and find out all the let downs that you have been having. It must be awful for you and I can't imagine the pain that your going through. I wish that I could give you a big hug in person and tell you how sorry I am. I will continue to pray for cookie and hope that God preforms a miricle and brings him home. It is so hard on you emotionally and physically. Please take care of yourself and know that we all love you and are supporting you in prayer all throughout the day!! Hugs~Joyce

Just for your information: Glendora: Population 52,000 2000 sq. miles
City Police
Besides Protecting and serving our community, our department will take the time to help when they aren't handling serious calls.

I've been on this site for years and this is the first time I've had anyone respond to posts. In the last two weeks, it seems like the newbies are calling out other members and they have only been on this site for a short time and not aware how people can take things out of context. Once you've been here for awhile, you know what to let go of and what to acknowledge. This is my last post on this subject.

Maybe, you should read their profiles and threads before making such judgements.

As you age, you encounter life's experiences first hand. These are our lessons learned and wisdom to understand. The reason I mention her age, this is her first puppy and I've had pets all my life.

Maybe you should go back and read all her threads, then comment.

Sorry Gen, about all this misunderstanding. My main concern is Cookie and has been from the beginning. I'll keep praying for his safe return.

I wish you could walk a mile in my shoes for a day, maybe you would understand what life is all about.

SOMETIMES IT'S NOT WHAT YOU HAVE IN THIS WORLD BUT WHO YOU KNOW...

...THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE.

[Cookie2]

I have been reading the posts, trust me. There are people out here who care very much. The truth is when I called the cops, this was not treated as an emergency and a cop finally came like 2 hrs later. I have received many phone calls most have been people sending me their prayers and people who have lost yorkies also. I know my mom will absolutely put up a larger amount for a cash reward. She has no debts and has her credit cards. I feel this urge to actually show an amount $$$ on my ads. People have not come right out and said it but I know those callers wonder how much am I offering. I totally understand that is is grand theft . I also know that if someone finds a dog and does NOT show proof that they at least posted a Found ad in the newspapers or proof that they called the animal control to check out this dog ( This is considered stealing!) I have said a hundred times that I am not interested in knowing who what where or why. If someone calls and tells me they have him. I will obviously ask for proof, a cell phone picture that it actually is Cookie. If I meet anyone , I am going with my husband. Today is exactly 2 weeks that he's been gone. Right now I can't accept that someone has him and is spoiling him.
After reading other stories I realize that I've gone through the same process as every pet owner who has a missing or deceased pet.
I didnt eat for 3 days, I slept sitting on my sofa because I could not bare the fact that he was not in my bed.All I did was cry for any reason. I still have moments where I start tearing. Even coming out of the shower is sad for me.
Cookie would sit by the shower and wait for me to step out of the shower, he would rush to my ankles and start licking the water off my ankles!

What are cops going to do? This lady lives 12 miles away. So a cop is just going to show up and ask to see the dog? This isnt the movies. I just have to see if my husband has any connections with any cops. I think he may.He talks to everyone and always knows someone that knows someone.

Mylittlegirls, Sorry, you've lost all credibility with me. I won't even bother to mention how, but as you tell me to read all the threads, I implore you to do the same. What you said was very insultive. "Newbie" or not, most of us have been on this planet for a long time and call it like we see it when someone is being naive and "judgmental" (pot calling the kettle black?). I bred cats for almost 20 years prior to joining this forum, and where cats may not be the same as dogs, a lot of it goes hand in hand. Maybe there's one policeman out of 1000 willing to chase after a missing pet (if that, in an ideal world).......but citing a "mission statement" is downright foolish when in the real world, it is a deep rarity.

I didn't mean to ruffle feathers, only to add my 2cents when I saw others being called out....because where I come from, that is the reality. I hope you understand where I was coming from and I'm not out to bash or insult anyone here. Oftentimes words expressed over the internet go down much differently than those expressed in regular conversation, which I think causes a lot of problems and prejudices on forums like this...and I wish that could be avoided.


I pray for Cookie everyday.


Carry on.
