Anyone on here from the Wilson or Witoka Minnesota area? This morning my boyfriend was traveling with 20 sled dogs he had picked up from Montana that were coming to work with us for the winter. He stopped at the rest stop on Interstate 90 Eastbound, 35 miles out of LaCrosse Wisconsin, to let the dogs stretch (attached by drop chains to the truck) and Godzilla broke through his clip and escaped. Looking back only once, he panicked and ran to the highway and never returned. They called and called and waited nearly all day. The dog never returned.
He is an unneutered male, Alaskan Husky, maybe 4-5 yrs old, light tan on his legs and face and grey on his back and tail. He's wearing a blue collar with a fleece lining and it says "Godzilla" on it. He may have a tag that says Iditarod on it.
We are heartbroken for the dog and his owners. I've contacted every vet and rescue in the Witoka County and LaCrosse area as well as the sheriff dispatch, Lacrosse Tribune, Winona Daily News and the Winona Radio. Any other thoughts? Does anyone on here know that area?
It is one thing to lose your own dog, that is horrid enough, but this was a dog that was entrusted to our care for the winter, this is ... very sad.
