Search for Two Lost Dogs Continues

One lost dog is in Maryland, and the other is in Virginia.
The lost dog in Maryland is a Yorkshire terrier named Reilly who disappeared from a hotel in White Marsh near Baltimore on Monday, July 23. Reilly’s owners are bound and determined to find their beloved doggie.
They’ve gone to great lengths to find their lost dog, including hiring a detective, hiring a helicopter and hiring private investigators–to the tune of about $4,000 so far. And the Davises are willing to spend even more.
As a matter of fact, they’re also offering a reward of $2,000 to the person who turns in their lost dog. And they’re willing to match that with another $2,000 for someone who may know the whereabouts of Reilly, say if he’s being held by someone who’s unwilling to turn him in.
The Davises and area detectives have even been working with local businesses to find the lost dog. Employees at a local Best Buy are even stuffing flyers into customers’ bags to help locate Reilly.
The lost dog in Viriginia is Lexy, a Lab-chow mix. Apparently Lexy just hates having to board at the vet’s office–he escaped from a Fishersville veterinarian’s office on July 11 during a routine walk. She was boarding there while her family was on vacation. She’s shy, and she slipped out of her collar and bolted.
Several people have reported seeing the lost dog near the intersection of Entry School Road and Old White Bridge Road. Linda Diehl, Lexy’s owner, has plastered the Entry School road area with at least 100 flyers. Lexy has also been spotted running down U.S. highway 250.
Lost dog experts informed Linda that it’s fairly common for dogs to stay within one or two miles of where they became lost. So Linda has set up a Have-a-Heart trap with food in the area.
She’s also asking residents in the community to keep an eye open for the lost dog while they’re driving, as she might try to cross the road. Linda’s very happy that Lexy is still alive, but now the tricky part is trying to catch the shy dog.
