A days-long search for a large wolf-dog hybrid that got loose in California recently has come to a happy conclusion, as the animal is back safe with its owners.The large wolfdog had been on the run since Wednesday, prompting concern and an extensive search by the police in the North Bay region of California. The Sebastopol Police Department put out an alert, along with a pH๏τo of the hybrid walking down the highway, urging people to contact law enforcement but not approach the animal.
But Shadow was in “flight mode,” and evaded multiple attempts to capture him. Authorities took precautions to look out for his safety: North Bay Animal Services Executive Director Mark Scott told KTVU that they closed down the highway out of fear that the wolfdog would get struck.
“A big shoutout and THANK YOU to the vigilant community members who reported sightings of Shadow,” North Bay Animal Services wrote on Facebook. “Your alertness and cooperation made all the difference in bringing Shadow back to where he belongs.”
What a happy ending! We’re so glad Shadow is home safe and sound!
