LOST 1/18/2022 - Greenwood Area - "Aero". Female, Jack Russell. 18 years old. Mostly white with two brown years and brown on face, although mostly gray now from age. She was last seen at approximately 7:20pm on Tuesday January 18th. She does not hear or see well. She was wearing a brown leather collar with her name and phone number (301-213-3678) embossed into leather. The only tag attached to collar is her rabies tag from vet. We live on Greenwood Station Rd. In Greenwood Va 22943.

She was let out with our male Jack Russell and only a few minutes had passed when he came back and she did not. This is very unlike her. Typically she goes out, does her business right by the house and comes back. We immediately went out to search with no sign of her. It is possible that she made it to the road and someone picked her up. In that case I hope that someone finds it in their heart to return her to our family.

Please call 301-213-3678 if you have any information about Aero.

$1000 REWARD FOR HER RETURN

Do Not Chase!

UPDATE 9/19/21 : Libby escaped on 8/2/21 from River Ridge Lane, Afton—ran down the North Branch of the Rockfish River headed toward the South Branch. She is a 55 pound female Beagle mix, brown & tan with a white chest, wearing green collar & tag w/phone number (may have fallen off by now). Not aggressive but likely scared & hungry. Last seen crossing Greenfield Road (RT 635) in front of Heartwood Design. Prior to that seen on Truslows Lane in Nellysford. A tracking dog recently scented she might be headed down RT 635 toward Batesville now. If you see her, gently lure her with food you put on the ground AND then immediately call Phyllis.
