Monday Status and Update

The work to spread the word about Griffy continued Sunday, with more people out and about in Annandale being told about him, and handed a business card, some by Gail. I know that this is hard on Gail, talking about her lost dog and pleading for people to help by spreading the word. It's necessary, though, and she and the small number of volunteers can't reach everyone. So hopefully if you are reading this page, you are telling others too, to be on the lookout for Griffy.

With word of Griffy being spread out like we've been able to start doing since the snowfall finally stopped, we are looking for sightings, and so far just one has come in, which turned out to be another dog. Even if you are not sure that the dog you see is Griffy, if you aren't sure one way or another, please do call Gail as soon after you see the dog as you can. If you are able to take a picture, all the better.

For anyone reading this page that is unfamiliar with how a tracking dog works, read the recent Wsahington Post article about Sam & Salsa with Pure Gold Pet trackers by clicing  HERE. The artcle doesn't mention Griffy by name, but does mention the track that Sam & Salsa recently ran on him, very briefly.

Meanwhile, if you are on Twitter, please tweet about Griffy. If you are on Facebook, please post Griffy's blog (http://findgriffy.blogspot.com/) on your wall. If there are bulletin boards you read or listservs you are a member of, those are good ways to pass it around. Email the blog to your friends, neighbors, classmates, co-workers, former co-workers -- anyone. Print out the business cards or fliers (see the Links menu at right) and make hard copies available to anyone you can. These are all ways that you can make a difference -- hopefully THE difference we are looking for!
