LOST in Minnesota: 2 Black lab/shep pups

We are missing our two Black Lab Shepherd puppies. I am attaching a picture of them. Casinova and Pirate are about 1 year old and went missing from my sister's house in the Highland area of St. Paul, MN on or about 12/10/2010. We are devastated that Casinova and Pirate are missing. Cassi has a white tuft of hair that looks like a t crossing on his chest. They look predominantly lab with long legs and a long nose. There are anywhere from 50-85 pounds, maybe more. Our pup from that litter in AZ is approximately 95 pounds. I am attaching a picture of them that I have. They may be larger.

Please disseminate this email to everyone in your community and anyone who does rescue work in MN. If you find our beloved dog babies, please call us immediately. We will come and get them. They are microchipped, and I will get you the numbers as soon as I have them.

LOST: 2 Labradors, 1 yellow, 1 black
My 2 labs broke out of their kennel in Newton, IA on Monday, November 22. Two dogs who matched their description were reported running on/around Highway 6 near Kellog sometime Monday. After calling around Grinnell (PALS and Northside Vet Clinic), I learned that someone tried to drop off 2 dogs at Northside on Monday or Tuesday and the vet thought one was a yellow lab. I am hopeful that this person has my dogs and she is still looking for me!

Lucy is a female black lab who weighs around 50 pounds. She was wearing a purple collar and a green and black guardian bark collar.

Linus is a yellow lab who has longer fur than normal for a lab (might have a little golden retriever in him?). He was wear a black collar and a bark collar as well. It is possible that Linus has skinned paws since he did another time he took off.

I am offering a $150 reward for the return of my two furbabies! I am heartbroken about their escape and will do anything to get them home safely!

August 2010

Found in Deep River, Golden Retriever, August 4: When I was walking the morning of August 4th around the intersection of Hwy 21 & Hwy 85, a male, Gold Retreiver followed me home. He is not neutered. But “Buddy” as we have called him, is super sweet. Still has puppy habits, is very skinny, and has some sores due to ditch weeds working their way through his hair and rubbing on his hide. He had no collar or tags, but did bear a red flee/tick collar. I would really hate to put him down, but we already have a gold retriever/lab and she is not much for sharing her farm with another dog. We are also getting ready to attended the State Fair this weekend and don’t have anyone to care for him while we are away. I have attached some photos of him and have also posted them to my Facebook page as well. Thanks for your help.
