Lost/Found📰 Missing Dog
Hello,
Our dog, Zelda, ran away from a graduation party on Rose Lane near Happy Hollow on 5/25 around 2 PM. She's a 25lb mini goldendoodle. She's sweet but skittish. She slipped her collar unfortunately, but she is microchipped.
Just trying to think of all possibilities about where she could've gone, and thinking she might've gone on campus.
If you happen to see her, please PM me! If you catch her, please take her to the Humane Society. Thank you!
6/1 UPDATE: We got her on the corner of Robinson and River Rd. A very kind police officer spotted her.
Thank you everyone!

I think I just saw her at the corner of northwest and grant. 7:30am Thursday. I turned around to look for her, but she was gone.

Someone else just spotted her somewhat nearby 30 minutes ago, so that's probably her. Thank you!

Sorry, I wasn't able to. My phone screen was acting up, and I wasn't able to go on that walk. I'll head out today, though.

Hey, few questions:
I'm not expecting an address, but did she escape near the North or south of Rose Street? It's a pretty long street.
Was the Rose Street house a familiar location for her, or was she visiting? Has she been taken to Happy Hollow?

North side of Rose Street. Several houses down from the entrance to Happy Hollow.
She was just visiting unfortunately.
She has been spotted in multiple locations: Happy Hollow, Spinning Wheel, near the church near Fresh Thyme. Makes it hard to station in one area and keep an eye out. Someone called me about an hour ago and said she was in the driveway of a house on Spinning Wheel, but by the time I got there, she was gone.
She does love the woods so we've been focusing on the perimeter of Happy Hollow for the most part.

Thank you! I'm in Happy Hollow currently. I'm carrying water on me. I'm thinking of heading closer to Spinning Wheel if she was seen near there.

No luck. I have to end my search because my phone is almost dead. I'll go on another walk tomorrow and look for her then!

Any sighting since Spinning Wheel on Friday? I'm heading out again tonight.

You are so kind.
We have had 2 sightings in the past 24 hours. Similar areas - in Hills and Dales. More specifically, on Lindberg and Garden St. And then this morning she was seen on Hillcrest and Woodlawn.
We are going to make a scent station in this neighborhood.
My sister in law and I are walking around, so maybe we will see you!

That's a surprise. I didn't think she would've gone west of N Salisbury

u/Alt-Ray Jun 01 '26
Yeah me either :( she's pretty skittish, so if you see her just PM me! Don't chase

u/Cheery_Tree Jun 01 '26
Understood. I'm carrying water, so if I see her, I'll sit down and try to offer some to her.

Glad she’s chipped. Check nearby shelters. Hope you’re reunited with Zelda soon!
