Help Needed in the Search for SKYE!

A search is being planned to find Skye and get her back home! Skye has been missing from her Ann Arbor, Michigan home since 5/31. With July 4th being next weekend, we’d like to do everything we can to get her back home before that scary time. She has been sighted several times in the same neighborhood, White Oak Dr., Pine Oak Dr. and English Oak Dr., just off of Newport Rd., the latest being Sunday 6/21. If you can help we need searchers that will actually go out and search for her and also watchers at different locations that will watch for any sightings of her. We are hoping to get as many as we can to help. We are planning an evening search on Saturday, June 27th between 5pm to 8pm or as long as you can stay, if you wish to come earlier in the day that will be fine too. Most of the sightings have been either early morning or evening; this is around her regular eating times and she is probably out searching for food so this is the most likely time to see her. If you know of anyone else that can help feel free to tell them or bring them along. You can also forward this to anyone you think might be interested. We are planning on meeting at the Rudolf Steiner School, 2775 Newport Rd., Ann Arbor. We need as many eyes as possible looking for Skye.

Come prepared with good walking shoes and a cooler with plenty of water. If you are planning on being a watcher you may want to bring a folding chair. You could also bring a bicycle and ride around the neighborhood. Also, a pocket full of yummy dog treats (cut up hot dogs or cheese are great) and a leash would be helpful as well. Make sure all yummy treats are VERY small, just enough to entice her. One very important thing to remember is if anyone spots her, they need to get down on the ground immediately, not move and please do not approach her, unless they have a dog with them and she is coming towards the dog, any movements need to be made very slowly. Calm is the key!! We will have more information on Sat. for those who come to help.

If you can help, please email Lindsey at lindseykkerr@gmail.com. If Skye is found before Sat. it will be posted on the blog and anyone that has contacted us by email will be notified. The weather for Sat. is scattered T-storms and showers Sat. night. If it is storming we may have to cancel - she most likely will seek shelter and will not be moving about.

Thank you for considering joining us in the search for Skye!

  1. I live hundreds of miles away, but I send prayers and I'll continue to pray that Skye will be found safe and sound.
