Resident needs help finding lost dog
Ontario native Lori Terry recently called me to tell me about the family's lost dog.
Typically we don't do these types of stories because of the amount of requests we receive, but this is a special circumstance.
Terry tells me her father, Jack Holtzman, had bought the full-breed German shepherd so he could have a companion for his last days; he was recently diagnosed with bone cancer.
But one morning he let his dog out for a bathroom break and when he returned, the dog was missing. That was on April 24 around 7:30 a.m. from Holtzman's home in the 600 block of Azalea Avenue in Ontario.
Rainey has a black nylon collar with a tag in the shape of a bone, she said.
"She made him so happy. Every time I went to his house she was either under his legs lying down, or in his lap," she said. "It would change my dad's entire world if we could find this puppy."
Since the dog's disappearance, her dad has been depressed, she said.
"I would sure like to make however many months he has left on this earth happy ones," she said.
A reward is being offered.
Anyone with information can contact me and I will pass the information to Terry.

Lori, are we distant relatives? I will start canvassing the area starting tomorrrow but can only do so on a limited basis. I know how precious those "mutts" can be, so maybe you can get my email address from Liset and we'll come up with a plan for "pops".
I hope you find your dog. Have you posted his info on fidofinder.com? We found a dog a while back and listed her info. on there.
