Friday Morning Update

From Karen, regarding Wednesday's sighting and other efforts going on to locate Izzie:

We were out there again late yesterday afternoon until after dark. Spoke with 3 people (in addition to the guys who reported the sighting late Wednesday night) who said they also saw a dog who could possibly be Izzie on Route 42 and on two side roads off 42.

One lady near the AT trail head said her dogs have been barking at unusual times at night. She told us she would keep her porch light on and check around (she leaves dog food out at night for her dogs) when she hears her dogs bark.

Unless we get a sighting report away from this area, we are hiking that area tomorrow. Blacksburg will be covered in case we get a sighting report near town.

Heritage Park is covered by 5 folks and their dogs who walk the park daily and carry flyers and talk to people they come across. There is a big mountain bike race Saturday and Sunday which leaves from the bottom parking lot of the Park. We posted flyers all along the route.

The trailer court is also covered, by two really good guys with the eagle eye who know everything that goes on, and by a wonderful lady who stocks the cat feeding station. She is there four evenings a week to feed, water and socialize the cats.
