Sizzling Hot Live Sighting Moments Ago!

I'm on the phone now with Sonia (Aggie's foster mom for 6 weeks, up until last Saturday) getting the scoop!

Tim (Aggie's new dad that she didn't get to know yet) got a call of a live sighting -- a couple very close to their home were looking right at her. She was sitting at Herndon Parkway and Sterling Road, waiting to cross the intersection! They had seen one of the fliers, and called immediately.

They managed to get her away from that busy intersection by honking the horn, and Aggie then scurried down a nearby cul-de-sac, Oakshire Ct, and on through to Redwood Court, behind it. So, ultimately she slipped away. But there's no serious doubt that this was Aggie. They saw both collars and heard tags, the dog looked just like her, and there's every reason to think it was her. So we're going with that!

We now have a map that shows areas fliered, the scent track from Monday, and now this sighting. See the map HERE.

Sonia, to whom Aggie was bonded, laid a scent trail (water she had soaked dirty socks in) from the sighting location to where Aggie's home it. And there's a feeding station there, since the first night, which has been eaten from, by the way. We're talking about how to figure out who's feeding from it, which is a little tricky to do with the rain we're about to get.

Well! This is great news that we have finally had a sighting. Sure, it would be better if she'd been captured. But for this moment, I'll take a sighting. Now let's see what tomorrow brings!

Find Toto Calls Made

Tuesday evening, a blast of voicemails were left in the homes surrounding the area where Aggie was lost. We know that MANY missing pets have come home by way of sightings that came in from robo calls just like this. So we consider this a good step, and we are waiting for the calls to come tumbling in, hopefully one after the other.

Drop a line, via commenting or emailing Aggie's family if you can help with the search. There's so much to do to spread the word, we can't say no to any offers. Please keep spreading the word, and hopefully the next time you come back to check this blog, there will be some good word.

8:30PM:  Thanks to the Carolyn Lawson Low and the Herndon Patch for the shout out! People knowing who to call when they see Aggie is exactly how the sightings will start coming in so that should help. Any minute now! Aggie has to be somewhere around here. She didn't turn to fairy dust. (Hint -- you can use the Herndon Patch article to post directly to your Facebook wall, which will keep the word moving around.)
