Here you go, Harry.   You are the man!

Our family cat had gone missing for 6 days. My wife and I combed through the house, garage, we walked door to door, put out flyers, checked shelters etc. during that period.  Then it dawned on us that Harry had helped to find a friend of ours lost dog some years ago.  I contacted her, she got me Harry’s info, and Harry immediately responded that he was available and after a few quick exchanges he was on the way.  His friendly crew of dogs got the scent and first did a thorough search throughout the house and found nothing.  They picked  up a faint scent outside but it led to no where. Harry explained that this was likely the dogs detecting our cats scent on our shoes because that is the way we would way, several times a day, to try and find him.  That led us back to the garage.  The dog that was searching the garage alerted quite strongly on my old Buick, which I had searched head to toe (e.g. hood was still open!), but the dog was sure he was there. And he was right, my missing cat was lodged/stuck way up in the wheel well.  Had I moved that car, and I had intended to soon, he would have likely been crushed. It’s amazing he didn’t starve or die of dehydration for those 6 days. We have no idea why he didn’t move or make a sound as I’m a car guy and was in and out of that garage, with it wide open, several times a day.

 

Harry and his crew are true heroes to our family.  Thanks, Harry!
