A furry fugitive was found wandering the streets near Chelmsford and Mayfield Rd. in Mayfield Heights, and the local police department is reaching out to the community for assistance. The Mayfield Heights Police Department, through a post on its official Facebook page, informed residents that a "little lady" was spotted and picked up by animal control. The lost canine was being housed at the dispatch center, awaiting her owners or someone who recognizes her to come forward.
The concerned Mayfield Heights Police Department's social media post read: "This little lady was found on Chelmsford near Mayfield Rd. She is in dispatch waiting for animal control to pick her up, Please call if she is yours or you know her mom and dad." Accompanied by a photograph of the dog, the announcement also included the necessary contact number for any tips: 440-442-2323.
Today's post reveals little about the dog – no name, no breed, and no collar. But what we do know is that, like many other wayward pets, she’s become a temporary ward of the state, cared for by the local animal control until claimed by her human companions. Residents of Mayfield Heights are encouraged to share the Facebook post to aid in the search for her family.
The city's animal control and the police are no strangers to such situations, routinely uniting lost pets with anxious owners. If the dog's family fails to come forward, she may eventually be put up for adoption and find herself a new home. For anyone who finds themselves missing a furry friend in Mayfield Heights, the little lady found on Chelmsford might just be your prodigal pet, come back home. The photograph provided by the Mayfield Heights Police Department in the Facebook post offers the best clue to her identity.
With community cooperation and the far-reaching power of social media, the hope is that this story will have a happy ending. If you are or know the owner of this 'little lady,' do contact the Mayfield Heights Police Department. In the meantime, the dog will be waiting for her moment of reunion or, at the very least, the start of a new chapter in a loving home.
