Yesterday afternoon there was an accident about two miles from here. One of the guys in the crash had his dog with him, and she got away. It was a boxer, and she was skittish. Last night it was -2 while we were searching from 1800 to 0130, we followed her tracks for about five miles through the woods, and her owner decided to walk in after a head on totaled his Subaru. He got separated and barely made it out at 0100. He called the state police while he was lost and we were looking for him, and he stumbled out of the woods and hitched a ride to where we had the OP set up. He got lucky twice in one day, first he survived a head on, then he survived walking through the woods in the dark in sub zero weather.
The search resumed today, and we saw the dog, but she wouldnt come to anyone. and she covered a few more miles. Everyone gave up, one of them set up a live trap at my neighbors house, and went home. She finally decided to go to the house across the highway from the accident location. So it was a happy ending, the dog is ok, back with her owner, but his car is totaled.
