| Found! At 2am this morning, my parent's other dog, Gibson, woke up and starting barking. My dad refused to let him out in the yard alone and followed him to the edge of our 2 acre yard, afraid that the coyotes would get him (he thought maybe they got Copper). Everything was quiet when he heard barking off in the distance. He took Gibson in the house and got in the car. He drove around near where the barking was. He got out of the car and followed the barking. In the bushes and branches, stuck in a bramble, was Copper, who had been outside for almost 48 hours. It was 28ºF Saturday night and it snowed yesterday. She was still alive and barking. He took her home and they warmed her up. She is eating and drinking fine. Unfortunately, she hasn't walked yet and she has a large bruise on her hip. She also has a lot of pus in her one eye. They were at the vet this morning and she is there now. She has an IV drip and will be xrayed. She is running a fever (probably from the infection in her eye) and is quite dehydrated. We are all hoping she will be able to walk, but it is uncertain as of now. The vet says the snow may have saved her life, as she was able to eat it and keep her fluids up somewhat. Also, her high blood pressure condition and the lack of medicine for this may have actually helped her, as the cold didn't low her blood pressure dangerously low, since it was already higher than normal. Thank you all for your kind thoughts and prayers. I am just so happy that she was found by my dad and not the coyotes. |

| How wonderful she was found so she can live out her time in a warm loving home. I couldn't help but think about how dogs will often times go off to die away from their pack. Hope she has a speedy recovery and can get back to her home.

| Thanks for all the lovely responses. @Yorkiedaze: We were also thinking that she may have went away because it was her time, but I really do think she got confused and lost her way. She is home now from the vet and has a minor infection in her eye and some dehydration, but otherwise she is fine. No new issue with her blood work or x-rays. Just some love and rest, and she will be back to herself in the next few days. The vet did warn us not to get completely comfortable until 48 hours after she is treated, as things can still go downhill, but it is not very likely as long as she stays on the antibiotic drip for the night tonight. |
