MISSION VIEJO, CA — A Mission Viejo resident in need received a helping hand from the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center after her dog slipped out of his harness and ran away last week thanks to the aid of a handy sergeant. With the help of Sergeant Stewart of the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center, a humane dog trap with wet food and the dog's bed was set up near the owner's house. Courtesy of the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center Stewart also set up the trap with cellular motion cameras that would alert officers when an animal was near the trap. After a few days passed, Stewart was notified by the cameras that the lost dog found the trap and was waiting inside.
