Chocolate Lab With Tumor on Eye, Leg Found in Nottingham

PERRY HALL, MD–Here’s a Facebook post from a Patch Reader in Perry Hall about a lost pet:

Anyone missing a chocolate Lab in Nottingham?

Can you help me find the owner of this chocolate lab. She was found in the Nottingham area off Belair Rd. She has a tumor on her eye and the back of her left leg. We will hold her over night. She does look to be in pain. Pls contact me ASAP if you know her. PLEASE SHARE

We know how much you love your Patch Pet, even his mischievous side. On those days that he feels especially rascally, he can sometimes get into trouble.

Whether a snowstorm builds the perfect escape ramp over the fence in your backyard, or your pup gives you the slip through a loose leash, Patch Pets are constantly getting themselves lost.

Don’t worry! They’re getting themselves found, too.

The American Pet Products Association estimates that Americans own 70 to 80 million dogs and 74 to 96 million cats. That’s a lot of furry friends to keep track off.

And according to the ASPCA, about 649,000 animals who are brought to shelters as strays are returned to their owners each year. We can help raise that number by ensuring our Patch Pets make it home safe.

Cat run out the backdoor? Find someone’s Fido on your morning run? Let us know about your lost or found pet on our Perry Hall Patch Facebook page or by emailing our local pet detective at abby.tang@patch.com.
