Too cute not to share
Please keep your eyes peeled. Short husky dog with a red collar running around Packard, story and badger avenue and Appleton
Please share this. There is no photo. Busy time of day and not a good area for a dog to be running.
So keep your eyes peeled from badger Ave to Richmond Street. Doug seems to be skittish according to the caller. Do not approach. Simply try to open your car door as a dog if he wants to go for a ride as they found that treats are not working.
During the call the dog decided to go towards story street from badger towards Richmond

🐾🤍 Meet Sweetie Pie – A Heart of Gold Looking for Her Forever Home! 🤍🐾
At 6 years old, Sweetie Pie has been through more than any dog should ever have to endure. She’s survived abuse, neglect, heartworm treatment, and even surgery to remove a cancerous growth. But through it all, one thing has never changed—her incredible love for people! ❤️
Sweetie Pie is living her best life in foster care, showing everyone just how amazing she truly is. Whether she’s tagging along with her foster mama to work, participating in a 5K walk, or simply relaxing at home, this girl is happy just being part of the family.
💕 Here’s what makes Sweetie Pie so special:
🐾 6 years old and full of love
🐾 Fully house trained
🐾 Does wonderfully home alone—no destruction or accidents
🐾 Loves people of ALL ages, including children
🐾 Sweet, affectionate, and incredibly loyal
🐾 Enjoys walks, adventures, and relaxing with her people
🐾 Would love a fenced yard for occasional zoomies
🐾 Must be the only pet in the home
Sweetie Pie doesn’t ask for much. She just wants a family to love, a cozy place to rest, and someone who will finally give her the forever she deserves.
We know finding a home where she can be the only pet may take a little longer, but Sweetie Pie is absolutely worth it! She has so much love to give, and the lucky family who welcomes her will gain one incredible companion.
She’s spent enough of her life fighting to survive. Now it’s time for her to simply be loved. 🥹❤️
