We received this e-mail today from Donna Brown, who's helped the Jernstrom family search for their black cocker spaniel, Jake, for months:
Dear All,
It is with a sad heart that I tell you that Jake still has not been found. The last sighting was on 11/9/09 in Springside Park (Pittsfield) at the pond on the southern end of the park. Without any sightings, it is difficult to continue to coordinate a search effort. Please say a prayer for Jake that he has found peace wherever he may be.
Thank you for all your efforts. Of course, if you do see Jake, please notify us at once. Everyone on this mailing list and the citizens of Pittsfield have been exceptionally supportive of our search effort. Thank you all so much.
Gail, Priscilla and Donna on behalf of Julie and Erik Jernstrom
If you do see Jake, contact Julie at 413-537-5616.
He's been lost in Pittsfield for weeks but frequently sited. He was last seen heading toward the fire station on Peck's Road nearly two weeks ago. We haven't received anymore information on him.
He's tired, dirty and needs seizure medication. He's chipped. If you see him, call Julie at 413-537-5616, the veterinarian 24/7 at 413-499-2820 or animal control at 413-448-9700.
