A couple combed a rural Montana community for their Border collie, Katie.
After a late night at a stock-car race, Carole and Verne King returned to their dog-friendly hotel in Kalispell, Mont., and made a devastating discovery.
Their 7-year-old Border collie, Katie, was no longer in the room. She had apparently managed to unlatch the door, possibly spooked by a thunderstorm that had swept through the area. At the front desk, an attendant said she had seen an anxious dog bolt out the front door hours before.
The Kings were stunned. In the small city of 23,000 people that backs up to the sprawling wilderness near Glacier National Park, surrounded by forests and fields, where would they even start looking?

ReplyDeleteI love my dogs very much but I do not feel like I would literally quit my job to look for him/her. To some people dogs are literally children, so if looking at it in that sense it makes sense for them to search as long as they did.
sec 11 My dog is dumb so I would definitely need to look for her. probably would be willing to quit a job
