Thanks Ralph,
Dog actually got loose in West Frisco, around Main and Teal. Here are some pictures. Dog collar has my contact information on it. Thanks for any help.

Doug, is Caroline lost? I bet you'll hear something from a good citizen soon. Prayers up!

So sorry to hear that. Will keep y'all in our prayers!

Any word?

I live out that way and will keep my eyes open. I've been there, and it really sucks. Prayers for you, your family, and the dog.

Thanks Brian. Yes, it is Caroline. She got loose from my buddy who was getting her after we got the call about my son's car accident in Jackson, MS and headed out there Sunday night. Son is out of ICU now and waiting for some surgery - so I think we are past the worse part of that. I hope someone finds her and returns her. She is very shy of people she does not know - she may be avoiding everyone. Thanks for the prayers !

Doug

Hope you find her.

Man, I was sure hoping to look on here this morning & read some good news. Prayers up for you Doug.

Caroline has been spotted in Little Elm in the Villages of Woodlake and in Wynfield Farms neighborhoods. She is very scared of people right now. If anyone lives in that area - please keep an eye out. Thanks all !

I hope she get found and returned safely!

Continued prayers...

prayers sent up! Bring that dog home!

This is maddening. Someone got a picture of her south of Main St and the Tollway in Frisco in the field south of Main Event. Animal control apparently chased her into the forest area in the other side of that field just before dark. I just spent the last 3 hours running around that field and the tree area calling her name and blowing my recall whistle. No luck so far. She has got to let someone catch her and bring her home. Hope that happens tomorrow.

Doug

Awwwwwww. Poor baby. She must be terrified! I am really praying you get her back soon!

You might want to leave food, water and a jacket or shirt that smells like you close to the tree area. BIL has lost pointers and left his jacket in the field. Came back later to find his dog laying on his jacket.

Yep, I agree with Kindall, put food & water with some clothes you have worn for a couple of hours out there where she was last seen. It really does work.

Prayers that you find your Dog.

I wish I were not 5 hours from you I would gather a search party to help you. Putting lots of eyes and boots on the ground could be helpful. I am sorry this is going on for you.

GREAT NEWS !!! CAROLINE HAS BEEN FOUND !!!

I went to the forest area during my lunch where she was last seen last night, and that I had searched around last night, and walked that area calling her name and whistling. All of a sudden, I hear a single bark. I run over to a fence, and she is in the field about 30 yards. I spend 5 minutes coaxing her to me - she was completely not trusting and would come close, then move away. I would use the recall HERE - and she would come back. Finally she figure out it was me, and through the fence I was able to get her collar and hold her.

I have gotten her home. She was thirsty and hungry, and her pads were worn down like she had been walking for 5 days - which she probably had - but other than that she looks in good shape.

Thanks for the prayers everyone !!! I cannot believe that after 5 days we have her back.

Son is in surgery now, and we hope to have him released from the hospital in Jackson this weekend. It will be a true miracle to have the entire family back together soon.

That is great news...

Awesome!!!

Great news to hear.

I hate to sound like a wimp but we need more endings like this

WONDERFUL!

Great news, you are very lucky

Great news. She really covered some ground...

Fantastic. Went through the same thing a couple of years ago. That feeling when you see that dog again is unexplainable .

That is great that you got her back. She is a lucky dog with lots of love !!

Congrats on finally finding her! Has she always been that shy? My DD has never met a stanger.

So good to hear!

Finally some good news for a change...I'm very happy for you and your family and will continue to keep them all in my prayers.

Good for you and her.

Not really sure why she is so shy Tmec. I got her when she was 9 months, and speculate she may not have been socialized appropriately as a puppy. I also believe it is her genetic personality as well - which is too bad - because she is a great dog except for this characteristic. Thank goodness it is not a problem while she is hunting. If you are holding a shotgun and walking in a field - she is everybody's best friend.

I wonder if there is any type of training / therapy that I can do with her to help her be more comfortable with strangers ?

Glad to hear it!!!

So awesome. God was watching over her for sure. I needed this post today.
