Sorry about that folks, transcription of poster follows: Pet Accidentally Abandoned at TransCanada Highway rest-stop in Alberta on May 6, 2009 . The Ranchlands Tepee Rest-stop Location between Brooks and Bassano, Alberta on the west bound sid of the highway. Name: Anna - A Sheltie/Border Collie X, Approx. 27 lbs., 7 years old, tri-colour Black, brown & white, White chest, white nose & 4 white paws. Micro-chipped: Type EIDAP #968000000334139 between the shoulders, no collar at time of disappearance. The Sad Story - We stopped on our way to Calgary at the rest stop (near Brooks Alberta) to give the dogs a break. Upon leaving we each thought the other had put Anna in the back seat of the van. We did not notice our terrible mistake until almost an hour later! We raced back - but she was already gone. We hope some kind people likely saw her in distress and took her wit them rather than leave her alone. She is VERY friendly and polite - loves people, kids, cats and other animals. Our hearts are broken that we could do such a stupid thing and are praying for her safe return. If you have heard anything please contact her owners: Robert & Laurie Benn, Medicine Hat (403) 528-2660 or toll free (877) 526-1616, Email: laurie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Facebook cause: http://apps.facebook.com/causes/280863/12344877?=c20bb5a8 ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
