I just watched another news segment on it so I'm typing this through tears. We have faxed her picture to every vet, shelter, and pet store in Austin and even some surrounding cities. Now its been on 5 news stations too. We are giving a reward and not pressing charges. We only want her back.

If someone wants her for a fighting dog, they are definately in for a disappointment. I just hope she doesn't get hurt. Town Lake the city shelter is on the lookout for her too.

This was so well thought out and planned, its very worrisome. We suspect it may be one of our community service people because of the way they carried it out. They are not allowed to handle the animals or work with them. They are usually in the storage room doing laundry and dishes, but they still get to know the layout of the shelter well. They staged it so Bear got out of his kennel and got out the front door. Some guy came in yelling to us that our dog was in the field so almost the whole staff and some volunteers who were there ran out. We had to chase Bear FAR with only 2 staff members left to help the public. Well only one staff member was actually up front. The other was in the clinic. While the staff member up front was running around frantically, Kayla disappeared.
