vivien Posted October 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 She was recently spayed. I just saw the stitches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 I am sure you have already thought of this and are checking.. take her picture to local Vets and see if they did the surgery and can direct you to her owner. Thank you for caring about her, and trying to locate her owners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackie Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Vivien, I have made a few phones to Vet ..got no's from: Luis, Memo, Berenice, Pet Care in Riberas, and 'don't think so' from Pepe. and the person who answered the cell # at the Ladron office was not in the office when I spoke to her - would have to check records tomorrow.. This may help you some from driving around tomorrow.. but possibly located the spay Vet. - . Hector Ramize Hernandez [ 331 007 0524 ] . He said he has done a surgery on a female Shepperd. I explained a search was on to find the dog's owner. as it was found but had no collar or ID tag... I asked him if he had records - info about the owner, he said he did not . I told him if the owner comes in to talk with him about the female surgery, I asked him to have the owner call The Ranch, as I did not have your phone number - sorry did not think to say look at the webboard . Good Luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudgirl Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 Vivien- just because a dog is wandering around without a collar or ID tags doesn't mean it's lost. If you take it back where you "found" it, it will probably just go home. Unless a dog is hurt or in obvious distress, you shouldn't take it home with you. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 I wonder if the people in La Floresta who recently lost their dog would like for whoever sees her to just leave her out in the street to maybe get attacked or run over. Or, maybe the people that lost their baby at Furry Friends would want some one in that neighborhood to just let their dog try to find it's home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordtruckman Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 If it means their dog goes home, then yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtnMama Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 It's a hard call to make. I know Vivian and trust her judgement. Is this a dog at risk or a family pet who has wandered off? That's why we suggest posters, neighborhood children , social media... A large dog can travel a long distance if it chasing something or lost. If it is just out wandering the neighborhood, someone who knows the dog or its owners are likely to see a poster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Posted October 2, 2019 Report Share Posted October 2, 2019 Like Mt Mama , I know Vivien, she has lived here for many years and very involved with dogs and she is not a novice or amateur in this area of whether to take a dog in or not.... she would not 'take in' a dog if it were not indicated. She has checked out the found area, and there are no 'lost' posters in the area... . Vivien has already put up 'found' posters as well as checking local Vet in hopes some Vet would recognize this dog. What is of good cause for concern, this dog has had recent surgery with sticthes intact and a potential for infection if she were out there on her own trying to survive... Quite honestly, it is a bit of a romatic notion that all lost dogs can find their way home, like in the Lassie movies.. Somedogs , as bright as we think they are, just can not do that, as much as we would hope that our lost dog would make a bee-line back home.. I had one get out.. lost for days.. even though she had had walks around where she lived, once she was out on her own, her homing GPS sklls were nil...she was terrified, running in a scattered way , trying to hide from unknown scary things, dealing with weather unprotected from rain/thunder/lightening, and etc.. someone did find my girl, take her in and and because she had a collar and ID tag on, the person called me and she returned home .. and for that I was and am thankful. With no ID on this dog, it is a challenge to find it's owner, but Vivien is working very hard to make this re-union happen. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivien Posted October 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 The shepherd was reunited with her family tonight., contact was made through a local vet posting on FB. It was a joyous reunion for the family and the dog. Hopefully they will get her an ID tag now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm curious- was the dog actually far from home where you found her, or was she in her own neighborhood, just out for a stroll, and would likely have gone home if left to her own devices? My dog has a collar but no tags (she has had at times, but she somehow always manages to lose them) and wanders around my countryside neighborhood all the time, has done since she was a pup and she's now 12. I would be livid if someone took her home simply because she had no tags. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
