This news left me with tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat and the need to cuddle with Walther for a while. Such good tonic, a dog story with a truly happy ending! Thank you SO much for this update, and hopefully it will be the basis for a chapter in a book one day! Happy trails!
What an incredibly lovely story. Bravo to you for your intelligent stakeout and dogged persistence! [apologies] Thanks to you, this dog has a new life and most definitely a hankering for braunschweiger.
Gus! It's awesome that he has a warm place to stay and people who will look after him.
I follow a guy on FB (North Country Drone Search & Recovery) that searches for lost animals, pets and farm animals using a thermal drone. His success rate is over 75%. Before he puts up his drone, he'll put out missing "posters" in the area and in local social media. A dog can cover a lot of ground in a day. 😊🐾
In addition to thermal drone operators, there are also trappers, K9 Pet Trackers that track the scent of lost dogs and cat detection dogs used to find lost cats. I post weekly recovery stories (I have an online pet detective academy and train rescuers there) if your interested. We need MORE people like JF out there finding all these dogs and cats!!
WOW!! Just WOW!! What an incredible story! Gus is such a beautiful boy and happy endings for him! He has a new home and family! YOU are a hero (heroine) J.F.!! What dedication to saving a beautiful abandon dog! Thank you for sharing this heartwarming and suspenseful story! Remember the braunschweiger! AND your dedication to trying to help this poor creative to safety! WOW! ❤️
It was team work but you were on the front lines and helped facilitate Gus's confidence that he would not be harmed and that braunschweiger was a tasty treat! What an amazing job by all of you! Gus is a beautiful boy and I always love happy endings! I really admire your courage and dedication! So glad he's safe and has a new loving home!! ❤️ Go team!
I was on pins and needles yesterday hoping this was a happy ending. It was even better than that now that he has a good home. I was also hoping to hope that you would publish this story today. Thank you, and Gus’s new family.
As a loving person to many rescue dogs, thank you for caring so much and helping this poor beautiful dog to safety! My two current rescue dogs, Buddy and Sophie (both Husky-Shepherd-Lab mixes) say "we LOVE you!!" Cheers from the Canadalands!
Absolutely! It was a staple in our house! My grandfather was the US Distributor for Carlings Black Label back in the day…and even though we were too young for beer, we always got a small glass with our Braunsweiger sandwiches!
What an absolutely wonderful story! I admire your patience and tenacity in building his confidence, which paid off. I hope Gus has found his forever home!
Amazing work! You are right, he’s probably home, thanks to you for breaking the ice. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Bravo! A great antidote to the world at large.
So happy to see you and your neighbors showed compassion for this dog. Glad he got taken in before the coyotes got to him.
Or he got to the coyotes. ;)
What an incredibly lovely story. Bravo to you for your intelligent stakeout and dogged persistence! [apologies] Thanks to you, this dog has a new life and most definitely a hankering for braunschweiger.
I think these people would have done fine without me, but I was happy to help.
Broke the ice. A big help, you were, JF. Takes a village.
A lovely story. We must have been separated at birth. I would have done the same thing. I even have the braunschweiger!

Of course a lovely man like this would be your friend.

Wow...wonderful.
Were you at all surprised by how quickly Gus took to the husband?
Gosh, I do hope he’s home.
I do love a good Scary Lisa story. 🤭
I was amazed! Still am.
And also: Who doesn’t love a good Scary Lisa story.
Thanks a million for the updates. It’s a miracle really that that dog came into that house. Good luck to all involved and love to your biggies!
Great, now I’m hungry for braunschweiger! (Really!) I bet my cats would love braunschweiger too…
On malt bread. With yellow mustard.
And a beer.

Thank you, THANK YOU for sharing this story! How wonderful! You committed an absolute good. You've made my week!
