Please contact me immediately at 919-225-0654 if Poet is is spotted - He escaped during the storm Tuesday and was running around between Brighton Ctr. and Oak Square. He has not been spotted since - We think he may be hiding out near Oak Square. If you live in the area, PLEASE CHECK AROUND YOUR HOUSE (e.g. bushes, garage, under porches, any hiding place). Thank you - I am desperate to find him.

My neighbor has a coonhound, but I think it's older than 2.5 years old. Seems like a good dog, but noisy as hell if I walk outside when he's out for a walk in their yard.

Terrible news

What a beautiful dog. I hope you find him. I will now go hug my furry friend. Can't imagine the worry you must be going through.

What a handsome-looking dog!

Here's hoping that Poet (what a great name!) is safely re-united with his owner(s) soon!

Thank you and please keep spreading the word

Thank you everybody - Poet has not picked up by animal control/shelters, police or public works (that was a scary call to make). He does not know the area since he escaped from his sitter's house in Oak Square. I really believe, knowing his personality and how scared he is of humans that he is hiding himself well somewhere. Again, he doesn't have his harness on as he apparently chewed through it prior to escaping. PLEASE keep spreading the word and look for him in any hiding spots near your house if you are in the area. He is very loved. Thank you - Claire

Poet has been found!!

he was hiding as we suspected - we got a tip from someone hearing whining near Oakland Street, rushed over and sure enough found him hiding in the woods! He seems fine besides a little weight loss and weakness. Thank you everyone for keeping an eye out!! I've been overwhelmed by the support and concern of strangers - Claire
