Hello! Well we left the dog trap set last night with yummy food, and low and behold, the trap was closed, food was gone, but no animal of any kind! Not sure how that happened, but that's been our luck!
I received a call from a very nice man who has become a fan of River, he just wanted to check to see how she was doing, because he hadn't seen her, I let him know she is still out there and was seen this morning, he was relieved. It is nice to know she has people on her side. Again, we cant thank the people enough who still call daily, either to check on her,see how she is or know where she is!

I also talked with Jamie from Seize the Leash today, what a great lady, I encourage anyone who is having behavior problems with their babies to call her she really knows her stuff! She will see if she can make contact with River, and maybe give us some more ideas on how to approach a dog like her.

We encourage people, if they want to or see River, not to try and "catch" her but kind of be in her area, befriend her if you will, or at least get her used to people being around her, not approaching her, or looking at her, just sitting in her area, toss a few treats or something. There are some people and dogs that she seems okay with ,being around her, as long as they keep their distance, this might seem silly, but it maybe helpful ,if we had a few people she isn't bothered to much by for future attempts. If you feel like you get somewhere with her and she doesn't mind you so much let me know!
