On Tuesday, 1/22, our family adopted a 7 year old female German Shepherd dog. About an hour later, she jumped out of our car and ran off up Route 7 toward 4-corners. My husband chased her and gradually gathered a group of good Samaritans who assisted him in "attempting" to capture her. She evaded us for more than 24 hours and was finally caught Wednesday around 6:30pm on Hop Brook Road. We had SO many people helping us over the course of that 24 hours - thank you to each and every one of you, including Brookfield PD, the Animal Control people, people who spotted her and called in, the guys on the TRAIN that stopped because she was laying on the tracks and they somehow saw her and ran after her (heart racing!) and the many many people on Hop Brook Rd and Kimberly Lane. We are very grateful to have our NEW pet at our home. Locked in. Tight. :) Having a great community means the world to us at a time when you question everyone's motives. Thank you Brookfield!
