My name is Pat Panek and I am the crazy lost dog lunatic who has been placing my “garbage” on your telephone poles in the hopes of getting some real information about my missing dog.  I am a certified Missing Animal Recovery Technician and a Lost Pet Consultant with Missing Pet Partnership.  One among you has seen fit to scoff at that, but that’s a shame, because all I want to do is educate people about the REALITIES of missing pets. 

Bridgett, has been Lost for almost 20 months now.  I continue to put up signs, in the hopes that some will stay up, because signs are the only way to generate sightings calls about her.  Without the signs, who are you going to call if you see her, or find her body, or think that she looks a lot like a new dog in the neighborhood.

Why won’t you help me?  Why won’t you help HER!!  Why do some of you impede this search by taking down signs and making ugly phone calls?  I just don’t understand this … a dog’s life vs. an 11 x 17” piece of paper.  If you haven’t been made knowledgeable in the behaviors of lost cats and dogs, these amazing and resourceful animals, I would love to help rectify that.  I would be happy to speak to groups, selectmen, whatever it takes.  Too many people give up TOO EARLY and their pets are out there wandering, trying their best to survive.  We can all make a difference in the lives of these animals, and the lives of their owners.

From day one, this has been a nightmare for me.  I am depressed, determined, but NOT delusional. I am tired of being all nicey nice and am speaking, uncensored, and with knowledge.  I am going broke, but I am NOT going away.  To learn more about HER, please visit her page HelpBringBridgettHome on FB or you can find her website at HelpBringBridgettHome dotcom.  Please help me to help her. Thank you.
