UPDATE ON BORDER COLLIE!!!!!!!
Chief has been found! A friend of the locals found him, and returned him to his very happy owner, at approximately 7 a.m. Sat. morning. It was the most wonderful sight to wake up to! I’m the campground host at Plaskett and she has gone everywhere and talked to everyone about her dog. When she seen him running up, she screamed of joy, “That’s my dog!” and everyone in our campground heard her excitement and our campers all began clapping with joy! They are reunited once again. Thank you Irish
And thank you Denise for sharing this with all my caring, dog-loving readers!

Brought joy to my morning!
I love this. So happy for Chief and his mommy and for the fact of what your website provides Kate. Joy in my heart too for a wonderful reunion.
Yes, I love reporting news like this! Everyone knows what a softie I am for dogs. 8-)

Thanks for the warm fuzzy feeling this gave me!!!
I'm ecstatic, the owner stayed behind at the campground and wasn't going to leave until "Chief" returns, I'm glad it was sooner than later!
What a beautiful dog! I was so worried that a mountain lion had found him or that he tried to run home to Santa Cruz. He certainly looks healthy and happy!
