She does remind me of Cookie, Cookie has a shorter nose and shorter hair.
But you have a good eye for comparing them!

I have a few words for what they did to that yorkie! I mean a 1.5 yrs.
They never took it to a vet in all that time?

After all the research that I've done along the way while Cookie has been missing I'm surprised and a little let down to learn that "in some states a vet can lose their license if they scan a dog and notify the registered owner if the current 'owner' hasn't told them that it was found"

Not to upset you but I'd look into what the laws are in Florida. If vets down there scan all dogs then you're way ahead of some states.

Still thinkin' of ya Cookie! Praying for you to come home.

Cookie2 · 01-07-2010, 07:21 PM

Some vets say that it's an invasion of privacy to scan a dog that comes in for the first appt. Some vets dont listen to that and still scan dogs.
My vet told me she scans all dogs and cats that come in for the first appt.

Gen

This is why I am going to mail all the vets and hospitals the flyer again and add a side letter. Telling them that he is still missing and to please keep him in mind. All I ask is that they call the microchip number and verify who is registered as the owner.

The person who is taking the dog to the vet has to fill out name/ address info for vet records.

Hi Gen,

Just checking in for updates. Nothing new... I see that you have been helping a lot of other people reunite with their fur babies. That is awesome and I can only imagine the feeling you get when you hear of these reunions. I know it must be hard for you but also rewarding. Hang in there. Always thinking of you, your family and Cookie.

I got the flyers yesterday! Thank you!

I am going to mail out to the vets in our county again. Even though they have them. Some people do take them down after a few weeks.
I'm adding a letter forthem to please keep this flyer up. I will call them to let them know when to take them down.

What do you think about possibly mailing flyers to as many groomers as you can find in your area. I'm not sure if a groomer could/would do anything if a Yorkie came in that looked like Cookie but it might be worth trying. (sorry if someone has already mentioned this... I haven't read through all of the posts).

ReesiesDad · 01-09-2010, 02:58 PM

I was thinking about other places to put a poster, the reward poster. Assuming someone picked him up and has him, they might use him as a fashion accessory and take him places other than a groomer or vet. My daughter used to take Reesie in her carrying case when she shopped at places like Bebe's, Hollister, you know, places where a cute little Yorkie would get some attention. Jealous girls will give up their friends anonymously for that reward. Once you have a solid hit you'll have to work with that person to get the inside look at the little one. Have them look for all the things that you know would Id. Cookie. Then...it's time to get the police involved. Did they ever assigned the case to a detective? I can't see you busting in and grabbing Cookie like with that Chihuahua that you mentioned and they'll never give him up voluntarily or you would have had a ransom call by now.

The other thing was that if he was picked up by someone on their way home from work then he could be within in a one-hour's drive radius. Around here people will drive two hours one way just to get to work and not care about the distance. Don't know how it is down there but an hour is the limit on reasonable. Contacting all vets and groomers within that might widen the search.

Somebody has him. Just have to wait for them to make a mistake.

It would have to be someone that works early Sunday hours because this happened on a Sunday and around 2 pm ...maybe a little earlier.

I wanted to go out to that Dog Park today but it was pouring today so I'm sure no one was there with all this rain and it was in the late 30's

I'm going tomorrow near the mall and will put a reward/Poster by the entrance of the mall.

Be glad for rain and 30's. It's -6 F here this morning! Whatever dew there was last night has frozen to all the trees.

I think it might be someone close to home. Any friends or neighbors (within a quarter mile) that always ooooh'd over him that you might not have heard from since November?
