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

[ReesiesDad]

I had a reply on that dog in Braden River but it wasn't him. He's a poor sick little dog that wasn't chipped. The lady that called was very nice and said that all of the dogs that they and ALL of the other rescues and shelters that she knew of scanned all dogs coming in. We'll find him someday.

Also got a callback from Arcadia, Fl. Not him, no chip.

Thank you, thank you guys for continuing to help look.
Today is my actual birthday and I do feel very down. I let my 13 yr old stay home with me since her throat was so sore for the past 2 days.We spent the morning with Monica in bed with us. My 13 yr old tells me "mom, it's like Monica knows what is going on with you because she stares at you for so long and where ever you walk she follows you" She has helped me soooo very much cope with daily grief.
My mom calls to wish me a happy birthday this morning and said she was sorry for not sending a card but she didnt feel right sending a card with no money in it. I told her what she did for me ,bringing Monica to be with us is a birthday ,christmas,valentines day and mothers day gift to me and not to worry one bit.
You have no idea how much I was hoping to have Cookie with me by now.
Today the fedex guy knocks on my door. Banging the door really hard so I ran. Always thinking in the back of my mind "maybe someone is bringing Cookie back" He hands me a small box, it was replacement for a broken cell phone. He asked me if I own the Yorkie that is missing. I tell him yes. He just let me know that he seen my sign everywhere and could imagine how much this little guy means to me and he hopes that someone decides to return him.

Also a lady I met at Petco that works for the Humane Society calls me to let me know that she is constantly checking out people with small yorkies and even went up to a lady with a yorkie and started asking questions.So people now are keeping an eye on other people. The story in the newspaper has made people so aware and not only that.They have Cookie on their minds all the time because how I described my pain of not having him home yet.

I'm going to try and keep busy today. When ever I go out I always take advantage and put new flyers but these are in large ziploc bags so I know they will stay clear and dry.

Thank you guys,

Gen

I have been away from yorkietalk for a few months and I only now saw your post, i'm so sorry about cookie, i'm sure you'll find cookie soon, maybe you'll have a xmas miracle. I will be praying for cookie's safe return.

i also live in Florida, in the wesley chapel area, not that I think Cookie would have gone out this far but I promise I will keep an eye out.

[spiritwings1202]

She told me 100% it was a tiny yorkie, she ran to get it but it kept running, it went behind the store into some bushes .She said she would NOT have called me but she read my story in the newspaper article and said she knew how much he meant to me. So she rushed home to get the newspaper and my phone number was there. Its only like a 3 min drive there. I looked like a crazy woman!! I was in PJ's with the headphones and listening device calling out Cookie's name and my husband on the other side doing the same.We walked and walked all the parking lot for over an hr. I hope someone in the parking lot saw this dog and took him until the morning. I told her that I have had 3 calls from people finding a small dog but they drive off and called me. The dog will NOT be sitting there waiting for me when I get there.


Today I had to follow through a very tough decision. My husband and I talked for a long time this weekend and Jasper had to be taken to the Foster house. They are trying to get him a family with no pets and kids are a plus. He loves kids,playing all day but he is very controlling when it comes to getting anyone's attention. He was double and triple the size of some of the dogs here and he would run them over if he knew they were coming to me. I heard what I thought was a squeek toy and it was Monica being squished by Jasper.This was my plan from the beginning and I knew what was right. I just did not want him in a pound. I tried talking to the yorkie rescue here and his size is a real issue so she was honest and told me the chances of him getting adopted were slim but if he was in a foster home with bigger dogs, his chances were way better. This place needs a lot of help. They are accepting donations to be able to build a big facility at that location to be able to have 40 dogs roaming free. They dont have them in crates there. There were sections ,small gated yards with smaller dogs, puppies. I know this place needs help and I'm going to bring some help for the holidays.
They need toys, towels, detergents like bleach, bowls, and lots of towels!
They are nonprofit so all this is run on donations.

This entire ordeal has taken me through so many experiences. Today I also got a call from someone that has my flyer and is a groomer. She has a client that needs to get her yorkie a forever home because of husband's job change. I didnt even want to go see this little guy because I just fall in love and feel sorry for them. Well I told her I would go and take pictures and try to find him a home. I get home and the phone rings. A rescue calling me to tell me that a family with a 30 yr old daughter just diagnosed with MS is looking for a small yorkie for her. I 3way called the groomer who is taking care of the yorkie and they set up to get this little guy. The man thanked me so much for doing this.
The yorkie is 6 months old and VERY tiny. He fit in the palm of my hand! He must weight at least 1- 1.5 lbs . ADORABLE, Icarried him and he stretched and fell asleep on my neck. I'm glad that this young woman will be getting the surprise of her life when she sees this little guy.

Gen

I find it amazing that in all your pain and heartache you are still reaching out to help others. God rewards good deeds. Continuing prayers for you.
