hoping
Hello friends,
If you're the praying/hoping/wishing/light-sending kind, could I ask you to hold our sweet Luka in your thoughts today? I would be so grateful for that. She's been missing since early Tuesday morning, and we're all very heartbroken with sadness and worry for her. She's been sick, and wandered off into the woods...we're fearing the worst, hoping for the best, and doing all we can to find her and stay positive in the meantime.
I'll write when I have news to share.
xo,
Amanda
























I'm so sorry. Will hope and pray for the best.debbie

You got it...... I'll be sending good thoughts your way until she's found! I hope she's doing okay..... I know how much a family dog means to everyone. Much luck.

Oh, Amanda!! Prayers, hopes, wishes, and light all coming your way. My old Rottweiler Mocha (she looked an awful lot like Luka) ran off two different times, several years ago, so I'm familiar with the stress/anxiety/sadness and sign-posting. Both times, after she was gone for 2 or 3 days, we found her and she was fine. Am hoping for a safe and happy return of Luka, too. Hugs to you and your family....
