Another thing I may explore if we don't get some results soon ... we are friends with the Police Chief and the Mayor and since we know what kind of vehicle the lady was driving, I believe they can find those vehicles in that area. She don't want that to happen!

Sorry for rambling, but I am just so frustrated and worried ... afraid that the more time that passes, the chances of finding him are becoming less and less. Amanda said to please tell you all she appreciates all the prayers!

I am praying for a safe homecoming . Bettyeanne , you don't have to be sorry for rambling its perfectly normal , I would do the same if I was in this situation.

Im praying for the safe return of Jackson. Please keep us updated.
Have you guys contact any shelters?

bettyeanne · 01-10-2007, 07:53 PM

I cannot even begin to tell all my YT family how very much I appreciate you all for all your thoughts and prayers!! The only thing I can really do right now is cry tears of thankfulness!!

It's the most amazing thing that only God could have orchestrated! We have pretty much figured out what happened. The UPS truck came down the street and scared Jack which caused him to jerk his head out of his collar. He ran like a maniac with Amanda running after him .... down the street, up the road, down the hill, across a very busy highway and into the woods on the other side. He evidently stopped and realized he didn't know where he was and tried to go back home. He was almost hit by a truck in the middle of the highway when he tried to cross back over and just cowered in the median. The nurse, Vicky, saw it and stopped, opened her car door and said "hey, buddy, are you lost?" Jack, people lover that he is, ran and lept into her lap and kissed her all over her face!

She told him to get in the passenger seat and she would try to find his family. She drove around trying to find where he might live with no luck so she took him home with her. She said he was soooo scared! That's where he's been since last Thursday! Her kids adore him and her little boy spent hours playing ball and just being a happy little Westie ... until it got dark and she said then he would get really sad and she could tell he was really missing someone. She had been trying to find his owner with no results.

The amazing thing is that Vicky's family and I have been friends for over 30 years! Her two older brothers practically grew up at my house and call me Mom to this day! OMG .... I couldn't believe it ... talk about God working in mysterious ways!!

Amanda just called and is back home with him .... I spoke with him and told him not to ever scare us like that again!

So ... Amanda and Jack are getting ready for bed and she said she can finally sleep with her little snugglebunny and I feel certain that Jack will sleep good too! I'm certain that his Nonnie, way up in Colorado, will sleep better than both of them!!

Again, thank you all so much! I don't think I could have held onto my sanity during this horrible time without all your prayers and support! You're the best.

Im so glad that Jackson has being found. Great news. Incredible that you knew the person, God does works in mysterious ways.

YorkieShadow · 01-10-2007, 08:06 PM

Im so glad hes back home. I love happy endings. Thanks for the update.

Little Bit · 01-10-2007, 09:56 PM

I am so glad he's home. It was truly an answer to prayer that she found him and cared for him so well. So how did you ever find her?

Nancy

Tiggerwit · 01-10-2007, 10:50 PM

Oh wahoo, the suspense was killing me. I love a happy ending.

YorkyMommy · 01-11-2007, 12:34 AM

So glad Jack is back at home where he belongs!! Thanks for letting us know. I really think that this forums' prayers help a lot of lost pups fine their way home. It's one of the things that keep me around. Take care.

bettyeanne · 01-11-2007, 02:59 AM

Thanks everyone! I thought I would sleep like a baby last night ... not ... I just kept waking up and thinking "Thank God, Jack's home!!"

Nancy .... Amanda went back to the area where she just felt had an answer for her and again took fliers and knocked on doors. She found a man who had talked to Vicky and she had left her name and phone # in case someone came looking!!

She had really tried hard to find his owner. She said that she really didn't know at first what breed he was until she saw a show on Animal Planet! She knew that he was very well taken care of and after she knew that he was probably purebred Westie was afraid that if she put an ad in the paper, every Tom, Dick and Harry would be calling to claim him!!

She was probably right because Jack is gorgeous and looks like every West Highland Terrier I have ever seen on TV!!

It just worked out perfect except for the six days he was gone and we were all so worried!! The little snot ... his Nonnie is going to spank his little behind when I go home! JK ... we all do "timeout", not spanking!

alaskayorkie · 01-11-2007, 03:19 AM

Woohoo, Jack's back!

Diego · 01-11-2007, 04:51 AM

I am so glad he is back home .

smmrpm · 01-11-2007, 05:21 AM
