It’s a mystery no more.
After days of trying to track down a dog in Abbotsford who was seen by multiple people and appeared to have its mouth taped shut – it turns out that wasn’t the case.
Al MacLellan, who runs Missing Pets in B.C., had been searching an area along the Discovery Trail, near Terry Lake for the dog following an initial sighting on June 2.
A couple of days later, MacLellan set up traps and cameras following a second sighting.
Over the course of the search, approximately half a dozen residents reported sightings of the dog but on June 10 a volunteer working with MacLellan actually saw the dog.
When she got closer, she realized what looked like tape on its muzzle was actually a traditional plastic muzzle.
The owner of the dog was there and confirmed its dog was not abandoned, just off-leash and given lots of freedom to roam.
