Lost Dog - REWARD
26 April 2005 - Battle Creek—One of my homebred dogs escaped from a couple in Battle Creek, Michigan. The dog is quite tall, thin and has long mostly white fur and is known as a Borzoi, or Russian Wolfhound. He is a timid dog, but friendly and will not bite. He has been missing for 3 weeks now and we were only informed of him missing as of yesterday (Sunday, May 1, 2005). The last known whereabouts was in Hastings, Michigan on Tuesday, April 26, 2005, spotted in a field (where I have no idea). I offer a small reward of $100 because it is all I can afford, but hope that will entice people to search for him. I have attached a picture of him easier identification (Click Here to view his picture). I can be reached at: 847-402-5253 (daily at work) 847-395-1117 (evening or husband Mike is home all day). E-mail: borzoi@mc.net, or cmichala@allstate.com
