Pr RE -- HR ERO Dogs missing (From page 1) in the wood shed at 11:00 at night, and gone the next morning. Mr. Houghland said he found signs that would lead him to believe another dog might have been used to lure Toby away from the wood shed. Jim Geer, a resident of Honey's Beach, north of Port Perry. lost his 10 month Siberian Husky November 11. "he said the dog was let out of the house in the morning as usual and simply never came back. Mr. Geer said he searched extensively for the dog, contacted dog pounds and Humane Society Shelters in several com- munities, all without success.

Whether there are dog rustlers operating in the rural areas of Scugog and Uxbridge Townships is not an easy thing to prove. How- ever, there seems to be a pattern to some of the incid- ents. And the people who have lost dogs recently, those people who know the habits and. traits of their pets, are convinced their dogs have been stolen. Greenbank W.I.
