I see, didn't really know what a CL was, thanks for explaning. I wonder why they would want to flagg a yorkie add, unless they have a time frame. It makes me sad to think Zeke's add could possibly be flagged. Hopefully people will continue to Pm the gifts for Zeke so we can get more and more flyers out their, and possibly do a letter to the editor Maybe do the summary about what we have done in the effort to get Zeke back. It would probably be a half page add. Someone in the California area would have to let us know what a 1/2 page would cost. We also should decide what is more important, more flyers, or more adds in the paper. I think the more flyers we can get out there the better, and I think they will be more effectibe than adds in the paper. What does everyone else think or suggest, our focus should be? Your imput is really appreciated, and helpful, as we do have to remain focused, and put the crunch on these theives, and pray the pressure will be to great and they will have a friend return the dog for the reward.

I have to sign off for a while. I will get back to the forum tonight, thanks to all who are doing so much in the search for Zeke, we can't thank everyone enough for your prayers, gifts and support in Maureen's time of need.

Candybaby you are a doll, thank you soooooooo much for all the work you have done, that is so great that Stockton is covered, bless you!!!!
Hugs,

Hi all.
I'm going on a trip for about 10 days (furkids going with!) my skinkid will look after cats, so I wont be able to come to Yt till I get back. I have asked skinkid to check on here for me, just this thread, cause I need to know whats happening with Zeke. If anyone talks to Maureen, give her lots of love from me, I will keep on praying. I feel so useless being so far away:(

Lauren I PMd you re: internet.

:love: Take care of yourselves and your Yorkies. Please find Zeke:)

c.l. cant figure this one out
 

I am a dealer of antiques in sonoma county. I do craigs list all the time/ When I first heard about zeke. I started looking on c.l. That is when I p.m. maureen and told her there are a lot of yorkis lost" or what ever in her area. so why are they not posting.your add??.
1. are you saying he is stolled or lost??
2. is there to much info so poeple are flaging it. rules say "nothing illegal"
so may be the posting should be mor like lost dog.
did you know you can post in more than 1 town. i can post it here sonoma.
i had a big sale and 2 people (competadors) did not like it and had it removed. i am wondering ... I am going to write the powers that be and see why. you cant post this on c.l.

Jeannie, every single word you said above makes total sense. I agree with you completely. The vets I spoke to in the Modesto area, all have scanners and are on high alert for lost Yorkies. My dogs' microchips are read by all scanners, no matter the brand. Most are that way today - readable across the board. You bring up a good point also about the reward. With so many posters, myspace pages on Zeke, there is a good chance that he will be recognized by someone that has seen him with his new "owner". It is logical from that point, that just for the reward alone, they would be prompted to make a phone call to Maureen.
I have not given up on Zeke. I just have such a strong feeling that he is out there, closer to Maureen than we could imagine.

Okay covered a few more places today :) Someone has got to see these flyers they are going up all over Northern California... I have a few family members in Lodi, Ca so I will tell them about Zeke and whenever I go visit them I will put some flyers up there in their pet stores, etc.. (Lodi, CA is about 15 minutes from Stockton and Stockton is about 30 minutes from Modesto (where Zeke was lost from)..

you are soooo amazing! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!

I soooooooo feel the same way!!!!! Thank you for your support, we have only had the reward posted for a few days, when the word gets out, the pressure will be on the one who took him, and will not want to be seen with him, cannot sell him, as would be reconigned, so will have a friend call Maureen for the reward and return him to her, and split the reward or whatever. That is a lot of money, and I feel he was taken to resale, my prayers remain full of hope that the Lord will bring him home to Maureen where he belongs, it is just going to take that one person to come forward for the money!!!!!! They will get another type of reward for what they have done and I'm not talking about money. I can not believe the amount of pain they have inflected on a young, beautiful, and loving person as Maureen, and I pray the Lord will make it right and help us get Zeke home, as we are all working and praying so hard for a happy ending to this thread. So everyone please keep the prayers coming, and the flyers going up, and the gifts for Zeke to bring him back home! somehow, someday, that little boy has to come home!!!!! Thanks to every one of you for the prayers, gifts, and the hope that Zeke will come home, without hope what do we have? This formum has been filled with more love and hope than any I have witnessed, I will continue to pray.................................and pray..........than pray some more!!!!!

I was just checking another "lost pet" sight and found a picture of this small neutered male. The info says he has been shaved because of matting, but his coloring is still very similar to Zeke's - blond face, darker coloring on the back. Tell me what you think. The ears do appear a bit longer than Zeke's, but it's hard to tell once a dog has been cut that closely.Here goes:

Good Post :thumbup: :thumbup: I'm going to say a prayer tonight for his safe return

Lauren, could you post a picture of Zeke side by side so we can pull them both up to compare, that poor baby looks so sad in his eyes. He does have big ears, that does not bother me as they really look big when shaved all the way down, the coloring on the ears looks to be a little red, and I rember Zeke being almost blonde gold. A side by side would help so much. It would be so great if it were ZEKE. Has Maureen seen him?

Here goes Hon. I just want to make sure it is not Zeke.Zeke is on the left :

(See you PM as well Jeannie)

I see a lot of similar things, but I think the other dog is more on the red side, and I think Zeke has more of a baby face. That poor Baby looks so very sad, it is hard to tell what his eyes would look like if her were happy. I think Maureen needs to check him out.

Thank you so much for looking so hard to find Zeke, one of these days we will find him, hopefully sooner than later! I continue to PRAY.

Thank you Candybaby, your prayers are so appreciated!!!!!!!!

I agree, but just wanted to make sure, because he fitted the age group, is a neutered Male and was found in Northern California.

Erm..... could you please post a link to your website;)?
