Vixen Has Been Recovered - Again!

Vixen, an Alaskan husky who went missing within a couple of days of her adoption in August, again bolted, on Wednesday October 27th, this time from her temporary caretaker while mom was away on travel. Mom had left numbers to call immediately in that event, since it's predictable that Vixen would try to run at any opportunity. Both an AWOL Dogs volunteer and a trainer from Vixen's day care (also a former foster) went looking for her immediately. On the AWOL Dogs volunteer's advice, the caretaker placed food outside the home, and near the empty bowl the next morning was Vixen! It did take calling a trusted Woofs! employee coming out and spending about an hour and a half to contain her, but Vixen was safe before the morning was over -- about 24+ hours from when she escaped. See Vixen's blog with some great photos as http://findvixen.blogspot.com/.
