Lost Jace German Shepherd Dog in Ottawa, Canada

[grimm]

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what else should or could be done to safely bring Jace to his anxious owners? It would be greatly appreciated.

I'm sorry he was lost! The only thing I can suggest is post flyers everywhere, check shelters daily, and contact animal control and perhaps the police to let them know so if someone calls in reporting a loose shepherd they can perhaps contact someone. I hope he's found soon!

Thank you Vela

This is so sad,As you know ottawa is big so make sure you put flyers everywhere,I wish you the best of luck!

Contact local shelters & rescues.
Put Flyers EVERYWHERE!!
My 2 went missing and are both timid and I knew no one would even be able to catch them and read their tags. So I depended on flyers and that's brought them home! A little girl saw their picture in the post office and told her mom she saw them in their back yard the night before!!!

I even spoke to the people at the post office and gave them a picture to hang in their back room so the postmen/women that were out all day long delivery mail would be on the look out for them too!
I placed an ad in the newspaper too.

I pray for his safe return.

Thank you Pitc9, Post Office is a great idea, I'm going to forward this info to the people searching for him.

Owners seem to believe that Jace is hiding in an unpopulated area of Ottawa which is Mer Bleue Bog.

However, apparently the Humane Society advised them that it would be best to stop searching and to just wait for calls as Jace could now be anywhere. They explained that a dog his size could cover 20 miles a day and that by now he could be in Montreal or Toronto.

A bit discouraging, I think. I am in Toronto myself and have no way to physically help with the search in that awful cold Ottawa weather and can only do some cross-posting here and there. I just feel very sorry to think of this lost, terrified dog somewhere in this cold. Many years ago I lost a dog myself, and we were never able to find her and this haunts me to this day. She was also very shy and scared of strangers. This was before the Internet and other means available now.

To have a dog lost and never found would be heartbreaking I'm sure.
I am so sorry to hear about your lost dog.

I hope Jace is found by loving people.
