Just a quick update for anyone who is following our search for Clementine. As before, I will copy my original post at the end of this message. Thank you again to everyone who has been supporting us with their positive thoughts, words of encouragement, and assistance in searching for Clementine! We are so grateful for your support and I want to keep those of you who have reached out or tuned in caught up. She is still out there. During the rain and snow yesterday, we didn’t hear of any sightings at all but we’re hoping she just found a dry and cozy space to settle into. Someone did report seeing her walking in the park this evening. We were very relieved to hear that she’s finding a way to survive and continuing to do so close to our home. Please continue to reach out to us if you see her! It’s very helpful for us to know where she’s spending her time. We’re working with the appropriate services to get her home and we have faith in their skills and expertise. They’ve made it very clear that we should not call out to her, follow her, or even look her in the eye when we see her. It’s more important to know where she is and let her feel secure enough to stay there. We’re just so grateful to have so many people looking out for Clementine – thank you and we wish you all a safe and happy holiday! - Katie --- First Post from Nov 23 (with a few updates): My partner and I adopted an extremely shy and skittish black lab and basset hound mix today only to have her wiggle out of her full harness and leash as we stepped out of the car to bring her into her new home. She darted down the alley at the end of Mellon by the high rise at around 6:30pm Saturday. Her name is Clementine. She is an absolute sweetheart and we were really looking forward to giving her a home and helping her gain trust in people again :( She has no idea where she is and we suspect she's hiding out under a bush or in a yard somewhere nearby. It's unlikely that she will come to someone trying to offer help. She is about 1 year old and 40 pounds but very short. Imagine a lab head on a tiny basset body. She is wearing a black collar and possibly a white temporary paper collar from the rescue center. If you have seen her or have any information that might help us find her, please call us at 727-458-5237 (Katie) or 814-758-2119 (Kelly). Any help is very appreciated!
