I pray that she will be found and returned to Bright Eyes. If it were my dog, I would never stop searching either. Thank you Ramdino for all that you do. Don’t ever stop being you and doing what you do. There are a lot of people that appreciate you.

[@Ramdinohikes]

That is so kind of you. Bright Eyes had to stop and go back to Canada due to immigration laws, but she is coming back in a few weeks.

[@esmereldapinchon1422]

She did her best. God bless Sadie. Let’s hope someone found her and is taking good care of her and doesn’t know how to return her. Let’s hope spreading the word helps.

[@Ramdinohikes]

That's what we feel may have happened as well.

[@Jerrylance-ty1re]

Mt man here watching 👍👍 ill keep my eyes open rest a 😊 sure

[@joyadams507]

This interview was so emotional! Never give up hope! Sadie is currently doing her calling, by being Sadie for someone who needs it right now! Thank you Ramdino for the update!

[@Ramdinohikes]

yea , it was tough to be there.

[@suehancock5573]

Don’t give up never ever give up! 😊You never know what is around the corner! Still praying for a happy ending! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@Ramdinohikes]

Exactly, just gotta be right once!

[@snodrog5]

Always have your dog on a leash.

[@Alex-yx8wb]

This doesn't help Sadie but just what i do as a hiker with a dog. I use the Fi gps collar. There are several companies with similar products including Garmin, Halo and others. They're not cheap but the peace of mind is priceless.

[@Ramdinohikes]

I tried Fi but it was inadequate. I now use Tractive which uses all cell services

[@cathyparker6980]

Continued prayers for Bright Eyes and Sadie. 🙏 There is always hope. Thank you Ramdino. Also thinking of you and sending prayers for peace and comfort for you and the family of your dear friend that lost his battle. ❤

[@Ramdinohikes]

Tks and you are so right

[@Deb-mi1qx]

🤞🙏that Sadie is safe somewhere 🙏🙏🙏

[@kevinhollingsworth8617]

I met this young lady with 3 miles of the AT of her finishing the AT!

[@windeaglemartin1800]

I live in area so keeping my eyes open.

[@Ramdinohikes]

thank you so much

[@dragonblaze9742]

A dog finding a different family is very possible my father picked up a stray dog on the road all skinny from not eating and she grew a bond with me so it became my dog didn't know her name so called her girl I know weird right but she took the name she rode Atvs and everything she's past away now but some of the best years I had was with her so I know how you feel I hope you do find her ❤ and Ram she is right you are and still the big key for sadie

[@Ramdinohikes]

I'm just helping and using my resources, and this wonderful community

[@Kyfried]

Get Ghost whisperer on it. Think you should start a missing dog channel and quit talking about hikers.

[@limulus61]

Ramdino, that was me in GA. This was near the Unicoi Gap crossing. If the owner was SOBO, it could have been Sadie tracking her. Unicoi Gap is an area with a parking lot and frequently busy with people. I saw the dog about 1/2 mile from Unicoi Gap in the woods alone. If that dog wound up at Unicoi, there is a chance that someone may have befriended it. Both me and my wife have iPhones. The dog was probably 50 feet or so from where we drove by. I don’t know if that is close enough to activate a signal or not.

[@Ramdinohikes]

Thanks for the info. I'm sure if a signal was activated we would know. The air tag may have been removed if she was abducted. Thanks for your report.

[@limulus61]

@@Ramdinohikes I went through the area again this afternoon and I'm surprised I even saw the dog on Wednesday. The terrain in that area is steep and I saw the dog in question in a steep downhill area. It looked a lot like Sadie (medium size, black with a white/gray face). I knew someone was looking for a dog when I saw it on Wednesday. I wish I had been able to recall the situation at the time. I would have pulled over and called her name.

[@windeaglemartin1800]

Sorry to ask but was she chipped?

[@Ramdinohikes]

Yes she was

[@ryandavies5321]

Hate to say it but that dog is gone......

[@Ramdinohikes]

We've not been told that yet. So we continue the search. Awesome group of folks who care and are doing so for Bright eyes and Sadie.

[@ryandavies5321]

@@Ramdinohikes There hasn't been a single confirmed sitting in how many months? Let stuff go, closure. It is not good for the mental health.....

[@wasidanatsali6374]

@@ryandavies5321 I lost a dog while hiking in N GA. She showed up on my doorstep in Atlanta 15 months later. She was skinny and covered in ticks, I almost didn’t recognize her, but by some miracle she made her way home.

[@ryandavies5321]

@Navy1977 I'm not negative. But we won't point out your judgmental attitude. I'm just being real here.......
