Joey, the 10-year old Yorkie and one of CAP's mascots, has been missing for two weeks now. His owner, Trisha Royal, is not giving up hope.
Royal recently put up 19 "lost dog" signs. On Friday, someone tore down nine of them. Despite the setbacks and heartbreak, she's not giving up. "He's done so much for CAP," she said on Tuesday. Joey was the constant companion of Trisha's other dog, Dixie, CAP's Four-Legged Ambassador of Good Will and he would often sub for Dixie at schools, libraries, trade shows and other appearances. "He needs to come back," she pleads, "...he still has work to do!" Trisha's home was burglarized and she believes Joey was kidnapped. Royal adopted Joey in 2001 and said the black and tan three and a half pound dog has a bad knee and is on medication. He was wearing a black leather collar with rhinestones and ID tags. If you have any information about Joey, please call Trisha Royal at 713.464.3525 or 713.202.1639. A cash reward is being offered. 2 CommentsLeave a comment |
I hope Joey comes home, what a horrible feeling of not knowing where your baby is. Good luck!
I have prayed for Joey's safe return since I heard the story on the news and read about him in the newpaper!! I will continue to pray until I hear he is home! My heart breaks for Trisha missing her furbaby and for Joey who you know is missing his Mom!! Maybe KHOU could announce how big of an award is being offered - I have never heard the amount - and maybe that will prompt someone to come forward!! Also - maybe it should be stated that no questions will be asked and no charges will be filed!! Dont get me wrong - I think charges should be filed - but that is a deterrent to bringing him home! And the most important thing is to GET JOEY HOME!
