    I really think the live trap idea needs to be used, even if its homemade.

    Also do you think hes on the run becuase there is a female dog in heat?? & since he's loose hes more interested in finding her.

    I wouldn't even know where to start to set a trap for him. There's thousands of acres of bush between the areas he's been sighted in and home. I don't even know for sure if any of the sightings have actually been Delta. I haven't seen him and black and white husky crosses are plentiful around here. No one has reported seeing him since Thursday.

    I tried luring him into the driveway with food. All that did was attract a wolf, an extremely brazen wolf who was clearly trying to find a way over my fence. I've heard stories lately about wolves getting past fences. Everyone seems to feel obliged to tell me their wolf stories lately, like I need to hear that! It even turned and snarled at me before moving on. If I hadn't been home that night, I would have lost dogs to that damn thing. I can't put the other 22 dogs at risk by attracting predators.

    Delta has been neutered since he was 5 months old. So I don't think he's after a female in heat.

    Thats not good

    Have you gone to the shelter & looked at all the pups there? Personally I would trust them to call. AS the one back home, was a great shelter, but they still ignored the photos of a lost beagle & nearly gave the beagle away until the owner came to the shelter anyways to see if his guy was there. Sometimes shelters just get too busy or the wrong person answers the phone

    I still am keeping your family & Delta in my thoughts.

    Over 200 of them, all over town, all the outlying areas, every mailbox I could find, anywhere there are dog teams, and every musher I know has a copy. I've stapled them to trees on the trails, handed them out to everyone I know, left on car windshields and stuck in house doors, handed to total strangers I've run into out walking their dogs. He's listed in the papers "pet report" and I paid for Lost ads in both local papers. He's also on several websites including petfinder. He's also wearing a collar with tags and is microchipped. If he's at someone's home and they've actually managed to catch him, they have decided to steal him.

    Glacier, your effort to find him is amazing to me. I KNOW he is out there and is still alive. Just probably very confused and hungry. PRAYERS!
