Margot, a female Cattle Dog mix, escaped from her Lake Forest, IL foster-to-adopt home on 2/15/10. She managed to escape from her crate while her fosters were away and when the dog walker arrived, she darted out the door.
Margot is now loose in the Lake Forest area and her potential adopters are currently out frantically looking for her. The local animal control and area shelters and rescues have also been notified and given a full description of Margot. She is currently microchipped and wearing a light blue collar with sheep on it.
Please spread the word in any way you can about Margot. If you know people in the area, please send them THIS FLYER (click here to download) and ask them to post it wherever they can – leave it on windshields, at supermarkets, libraries, gas stations, forest preserves and dog parks – wherever people will be sure to see it.
Margot was previously a stray for nearly a year and was very elusive in being caught. She was picked up by Kane County Animal Control and it is believed she may try to go back to her ‘den’ in that area. Though she adores people once she gets to know them, she can be skiddish with strangers and will scare easily in new environments. Margot is good with other dogs so she may be more inclined to come over to you if you have a dog-social dog with you.
You can view Margot’s full description and more pictures at her Petfinder page.
