Thanks for posting, SteveA....we have been keeping an eye out for Jack since Lisa called us. What a great dog he is! I had hoped that someone held him until when the Humane Society opened yesterday, but as of last night nobody reported him found. ;-(

I believe he has a microchip, but the finder must know to take him to a vet or local Humane Society for scanning.

We are continually watching for him wherever we drive within a 20-mile radius -- even the old boys can get some distance over time.

Default Has Jack been found?

SteveA,

You are right....he is a handsome devil! It has been a couple of days now.....has Jack been found? Sorry, I don't live in the area, so the chances of me finding him are slim to none....unless he is a great walker.

I hope to hear good news soon.

Default I Don't Know if he's been found

We haven't heard the current news from Lisa. I'm away on business, and won't hear any update until Friday morning.

SteveA

Thanks for posting the Pics Airwaves.

As of yesterday (Sunday, August 16) there was no Jack. The last sighting was several days ago in Gilford Village in the grammar school area. But nothing since. ;-(
I understand he has a microchip, so if found he will hopefully be scanned.

Default Some New Information...

This is from Jack's owner just today.

" hate to be a pain but We are still looking for Jack. There have been some recent sightings in the Alton/Gilmanton area. He evidently went over the Mountain. I felt that he was sticking to the woods. They say he is dingy and on the thinner side. The last sighting was about a week ago so he could be any where. I just ask that everyone keep their eyes open and please ask everyone you know to do the same. Even in out laying areas. If you are able to put flyers in businesses near you or on Telephone poles, I would so appreciate it! If anyone needs a flyer just let me know and I can email one to you. Thank you! Lisa"


Contact Lisa @ 527-1400 OR 630-3529 email Mckenzield@aol.com

Default Jack

While I was up in August I posted color photos of Jack in the Center Harbor area, plus I left printouts for the 16 plus relatives that were to follow me after I left. I am so glad there have been sighting still coming in. He's a big boy, he can still make it home.

Smile Glad He's Been Spotted!

Steve, have the local and surrounding town's police been alerted about Jack? Do you know if they have listed him on any websites like Pet Finder? Many other sites also have a lost dog section.

It is very encouraging that he's being spotted. Hopefully he will be home soon. Thanks for keeping us posted.

Default No New Info

Thanks Folks,

No new info as of today.

RS... Lisa reads this site.. so maybe she already has or will get Jack up on those sites.

Jeff... thanks.. you are a good guy, even tho you are a far right wing wacko! (Just kidding folks! Jeff's only Semi far right wing. He does have a Sarah Palin autographed picture tho...)

Seriously.. this site does lot's of great things.. it would be really great if we could help find Jack.

PS... if your tempted to send me nasty mail about the comment to Pineedles.. skip it, it's just a long running joke between two friends..

Red face Waing for the Good News!

SteveA,

A couple of times, I wanted to post to ask if there was an update...had Jack been found? But, I knew you would log on with an update. I am sorry that the update says he is still missing.

I am optimisitic that he will be found. He is a good looking (and big) dog. He cannot go missing for too much longer.

I look forward to your next post....telling us that Jack is home. Pass along all of our best wishes to your friend Lisa and her family.

I keep reading this hoping to read that Jack has been found, too. It is only a matter of time if he has been seen by others.

As an animal lover, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

I wonder if Jack is friendly. Would he approach people he sees or just run away? He certanly stands out and I'm shocked nobody has noticed him roaming around looking lost. I really want to read that he's gotten home...

Saturday afternoon, while cruising home the LONG way from errands I saw tons of LOST DOG signs on all the back roads in Gilmanton over towards the back of Sunset Lake, Crystal Lake and Place's Mill Road. someone has gone to a lot of effort. I kept my eyes peeled but no luck. Amazing that Jack actually made it up and over the Belknap Mt. Range. It's very rough terrain.

Default Any word?

Any word on Jack?

Has that big boy decided to come home?

I am guessing if he is anything like my baby boy...he must of ate the couch, the laundry, the chair, the trash, the rug...and figures he is in the dog house.

Waiting to hear good news!

Keep us posted!
