Lost Dog - Cleopatra
Our
dog, Cleopatra (Cleo), an Italian Greyhound, ran away from our dog
sitters yard on the 6200 block of Magnolia Ave. yesterday (9/21) at
around 4:30am.
She
is grey and white, about 10lbs, and has the tattoo "65" in one of her
ears. She is a puppy mill rescue dog, so she's still very timid. If you
see her, and you yell "up" she will crouch so that you can pick her up.
She will not bite and is up to date on all her shots.
She
will often times hide in enclosed spaces (a bush or on a porch) when
she is scared, so she may be hiding in your back yard or bushes and you
may not know it.
Any help would be appreciated and we are offering a reward for the trouble if you find her.
Here is my contact information if you see or know anything
