Mike tried to lift the Garage door up and could only get it up about 3 inches, he was trying to feel if there was a male dog in there, that could be Zeke but could not. They did call Animal Control, and she is turning the case over to the lady on duty for the next four days. They will go over today and hopefully be able to file a complaint on the number of dogs on the property, and to see if all are licensed, if not they have a right to take to check them out to make sure all are in good condition, at that time they will use the scanner to see if they have ZEKE or Cosmo the other yorkie that went missing. So say your prayers, and I will get back to you all if I find anymore out. I pray this will be the day we all have been hoping for. We owe Galatea big time for finding the address of the Grandmother.

Hugs and Love to all, I have missed everyone so much!

May I ask an obvious question? Why didn't they simply call the dog's name?

I hope someone is watching that house all day today so they can't
be moved out for whatever reason.
Grandma your going down!

We need to get a volunteer to watch the house and take pictures, if we can get a picture of the Grandmother with ZEKE and Maureen can identify him, than we can demand the police do something. It is the law, thank you for reminding us to have someone watching that house day and night! I totally spaced that out. That is really the only way we are going to be able to get the police to take us seriously is to get a picture. Lets remain very hopeful, and positive, we are so dang close, we have to open the door to this lead, if Zeke is not there and has been sold, I think it has to be back to the Wal Mart. tapes and the woman who was trying to sell a dog that looked like ZEKE.

I am going to see if at the least they will get a Detective out there to watch the house and take pictues of the grandmother and a yorkie that she has been taking to her son's house when she visits.

I am sure you all know that the Sons house was raided by the police, as there was a stolen RV parked in front of the sons house. Now why the police will not take this case by the grandmother serious is beyond me.

Thanks to all who have been so loyal in trying to get ZEKE home. We will get him home or die trying!!!!!! I will continue to pray!!!!!!

I am praying for Zeke

Just following along on this story is so emotional, I can't even imagine being one of the people working directly on this case... you all are working so hard to find Zeke......I hope he's brought home soon, that poor little guy must be so heartbroken for his mom....prayers it happens soon for all involved...

They did, and all the dogs came running, they have been locked in a dark Garage, and in filthy conditions, and are all craving human attention! That is why Mike was trying to feel under the dog to see if there was a male, but the Garage door would only open 3 inches, and he could not feel under any of the dogs.

But thank you for asking, I am sure other people are wondering the same. Their is also a yard that you can not get to unless you go through the house, and many yorkies were barking in the yard as well.

Since the police are being so helpful

Aren't there any animal groups or a dog warden or ASPCA that maybe more willing to help with the proof you have? Someone with an interest more of animals.

I really don't think the police will help you with any amount of proof you may get. IMO

You know you could be so right, I would think if there was a complaint filed about the conditions that an exsesive amount of dogs are being kept in horrific conditions they should be able to help in a heart beat.

I will ask Marueen to ask Galatea our lawyer on the case who elce we could get to help rescue all these poor dogs, as I do believe by the way it was described to me that the conditions the dogs are living in are filthy!!!!!

It's so sad that no one really care enough about dogs to help them with the exception of our rescue groups, but we would have to go through the police to get a police warrant, and they just will not do anything for us.

We are sooooooooo close, this is just too sad!!!!!!! I will continue with my prayers and stay focused, possitive, and full of hope!!!!!

Hugs,
Jeannie
