Monday Morning Update

Update from Karen

Over the weekend, Karen had heard from one of the two people that sighted Izzie last week, saying that after she looked at the photos on the blog, she decided that the dog she saw wasn't Izzie. Certainly we're glad to know this if it's the case, but obviously it was a let down. So Karen caught up with the other person that had seen a dog matching Izzie's description on the same day. He viewed Izzie's photos on the blog and is "98% certain" the dog he saw at 3:30pm on the 15th was indeed Izzie. This is good news, and it's the latest sighting we now have -- last Tuesday.

Karen visited the house closest to that sighting and has spoken to 3 different people who live or are visiting there. One guy that she spoke with had been away for a month and just returned late on the evening of the 15th. No real help there.

Old Creek Road is part of the daily loop, and Karen is over there at least 4 times daily at different times. She's securing permission to walk the area. Ever the optimist, Karen noted that the good news with the rain today is that maybe she can pick up some paw prints around the creek bed.

Izzie is SOOO lucky that Karen has been able to keep her spirits up, and isn't giving up after so long (more than seven weeks now), as many, many people who have lost their dogs do. Ask anyone who has lost and dog, and they'll tell you it's hard to keep going week after week. But the support of all Karen's and Izzie's friends helps make it possible for her to keep going! Keep that support coming!
