Brockville, Ont. couple reunited with lost dog after 40 days of searching
Global News
Dave and Amanda Hallett spent 40 days tracking their Bernese Mountain Dog, Brady, after he went missing north of Kingston, before they were finally reunited.
A lost Bernese Mountain Dog has finally made its way home after a 40-day adventure across southeastern Ontario.
“It’s just such a relief,” says Amanda Hallett, the dog’s owner.
Dave and Amanda Hallett are feeling relieved because for more than a month they weren’t sure if they’d ever see their beloved Brady, again.
Brady’s 40 days in the wild started in early September, when the couple went to a wedding, and the pup was being watched by Dave’s parents in a town north of Kingston.
“They were getting ready to take him for a walk, and something spooked him,” says Dave Hallett. “He burst out their screen door and before they could catch up to him, he was off in the woods.”
The Halletts rushed back from the wedding, but Brady was nowhere to be found.
Amanda says they took to social media early, but after a few weeks and a few reported sightings, they had no luck actually catching up with Brady. So they enlisted the help of experienced dog rescuer Kimberly Vastino.
“She realized we need a bigger community,” says Amanda. “We can’t just be doing some of these local Facebook groups, we need our own page.”
