Rosie香蕉视频直播檚 ordeal is finally over after 62 days on the run.

The lost dog originally from Korea was captured safely by Petsearchers Canada on Sunday afternoon in Chilliwack.

香蕉视频直播淪he doing fine,香蕉视频直播 said Al MacLellan of Petsearchers Canada, a pet recovery and bloodhound tracking service based in Surrey. 香蕉视频直播淪he香蕉视频直播檚 a very sweet little dog.香蕉视频直播

He managed to rescue the Jindo-cross dog by tracking her nightly with a thermal drone, among other of his signature search techniques, with many successful searches under his belt.

香蕉视频直播淪he香蕉视频直播檇 been out there a long time,香蕉视频直播 MacLellan said about 香蕉视频直播淩osie,香蕉视频直播 as they called her, who was originally named 香蕉视频直播淩ose.香蕉视频直播

He says he香蕉视频直播檚 become a little attached to the dog, as he often does. It happens before he even finds the dog he香蕉视频直播檚 searching for, but he knows he can香蕉视频直播檛 take them all home.

MacLellan had been on way out to Chilliwack on June 25, with son Parker, and daughter London, around lunch time. They had a trap set-up in a blocked-off alleyway, when another call came in with a fresh sighting of Rosie.

This time would be the charm.

香蕉视频直播淲e found her underneath a back deck,香蕉视频直播 he said. It was under the deck structure at a home near Reese Avenue and Corbould Street in Chilliwack.

He was being careful not to spook her as he approached. He could see there wasn香蕉视频直播檛 enough room to throw the net over the dog.

香蕉视频直播淚 started talking to her quietly,香蕉视频直播 he said. 香蕉视频直播淭hey don香蕉视频直播檛 know if you香蕉视频直播檙e there to hurt them or help them.香蕉视频直播

He put the catch pole around her, gently scooped her into his van.

香蕉视频直播淪he was very calm, and stayed with me all night,香蕉视频直播 MacLellan said. 香蕉视频直播淪he allowed me to pet her, and check her over.香蕉视频直播

Rosie was safe, after going missing on April 24. She escaped from her adoptive home in downtown Chilliwack.

It was the owner of Koastal Dog Rescue on Vancouver Island who first reached out to Petsearchers Canada to find Rosie soon after she escaped, he said.

Once on the search MacLellan would drive out to Chilliwack almost daily, setting traps, feed station, following sightings, with 300 posters that went up to encourage calls about sightings.

香蕉视频直播淪he was everywhere,香蕉视频直播 he said, citing calls about sightings from Airport Road, Skwah First Nation, Downtown to Prest Road.

In the past they have brought in bloodhounds in certain searches but in this case it was the thermal drone that did the trick.

香蕉视频直播淪he was so fast and small, she would just disappear,香蕉视频直播 he said when she was on the run, and sticking close to the edge of buildings.

But from the drone they could track the dog香蕉视频直播檚 movements from the air.

He appreciated all the calls from neighbours trying to help, and those who followed the searchers香蕉视频直播 specific requests not to put food out, or call to the dog.

香蕉视频直播淧eople were so kind and helpful,香蕉视频直播 MacLellan said. 香蕉视频直播淩osie had a pretty big following.香蕉视频直播

Volunteer Karen McKay, who香蕉视频直播檇 been helping with the search, said she was speechless when Rosie was finally safe and sound.

香蕉视频直播淚t was incredible,香蕉视频直播 she said. 香蕉视频直播淎l was so calm. He has a heart of gold and is so good at what he does.香蕉视频直播

He never gave up and stayed positive, she said.

香蕉视频直播淗e knew he was going to catch her,香蕉视频直播 McKay said. 香蕉视频直播淲hen he was approaching her, he was talking to her so quietly, telling her she was safe, saying 香蕉视频直播榃e香蕉视频直播檝e got you now.香蕉视频直播櫹憬妒悠抵辈

Rosie was expected to head to a veternarian香蕉视频直播檚 office for a complete check-up on Monday.
