LOST DOG / German Shorthaired Pointer

Columbus OH

Description

Posting for a friend: STILL MISSING, DAY 4 Please continue to keep an eye out and help monitor sites where she might show up as “found” or “for sale”! THANK YOU! **LOST DOG IN COLUMBUS, OHIO** +Last seen: 4/22/21, 6:15 a.m., near Flint Rd and 23N (just north of Worthington) +German Shorthaired Pointer, dark brown with white spots +If you think you see her: call or text . +Do not chase! We are in shock. I always take Cinder out first thing in the morning (still dark) on a slip leash. Thursday morning, there was frost, so when she spied a deer in the woods, she pulled me so hard, I fell to the ground and lost hold of her leash. I figured she’d tear around for a bit and then come back with that happy, panting, “thought-you-were-running-with-me-mom” face. I spotted her a couple times within the first 10-15 minutes, but she was not ready to stop running. (If you know a high-energy, athletic dog, you know that evasive bounce they do and that I had no chance!) She was dragging her leash and seemed unbothered by that fact. She does not have a collar on, but is registered and microchipped. There have been NO sightings. Not one. I don’t get it! We (with the help of so many friends and strangers!) have combed the woods completely and thoroughly near our house. We thought maybe she got her leash caught on something and hadn’t gone too far. Did someone steal her? Will I get money demands by text? Is she simply in another county by now? She could definitely run all day and be happy about it, but she is NOT a fan of the cold we just experienced. She’s a high-energy NUT. But she’s OUR nut. It’s getting harder to think clearly or process possible outcomes because she’s seemingly vanished. Posted and shared a zillion times over, called police/vets/emergency vets, filed reports, visited dog shelters, hung/handed out signs, working with every animal rescue group possible, even drove to another town to check out a caught Dalmatian... What now? Where is Cinder???
