This completely freaks me out:

I live in NE Portland, and have for 4 years. I love this city, especially the fact that it is so dog friendly. When there was a series of poisonings in the parks, my heart broke for all those who so needlessly suffered. The overwhelming call to arms and support that Portland showed in response to that incident is why I am writing you. Two weeks ago to the day my dog Sarah Bear was stolen just blocks from my house. She has been my best friend, companion and loved member of my family for over 10 years now. I had a search and rescue unit come to my neighborhood and do a thorough search for her. Her scent ended on a sidewalk near my house which was confirmation for the rescue team that she had been picked up in a car. She was wearing a collar and ID tag with her name and my contact information on it. I have since received numerous calls from people saying they have her, or that they know where she is and they have all resulted in dead ends, or more harassing phone calls, the police can do nothing. So I have searched everywhere I could think, canvased the area, posted flyers, internet profiles, you name it. Someone has her and I will not give up until I find her. I am planning a fundraiser/awareness party likely at the Blue Monk or Berbatis. I already have some very well known local bands, artist, and concerned friends all willing to donate their time, money and talents to raise awareness and a reward and increase the possibilty of her safe return.

I NEED YOUR HELP.

I want the whole city to know she is missing and that she has a home and a family anxiously awaiting her return. I would be willing to do more research to expand the depth and range of this story in hopes that we can prevent this from happening again, or stop those that commit these crimes. Any advice, suggestions, support or help might make the difference in finding her.
Sincerely yours,
Greg Price
