The Retrievers is an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization in Minnesota dedicated to helping families find their missing dogs.  Amy Addy, the caseworker helping the family with their search for Rowdi, issued a statement on Saturday afternoon to Boreal Community Media.

This is where it's imperative you follow our lost dog protocol and do not go out screaming/yelling for him or chasing him if you see him. We do NOT want him chased out into traffic - but at this point we do need to get an idea of where he's hanging out at
.

If we could have a small group of people concentrate on Search Zones 1 and 2, that would be great. 

Pay close attention to dog tracks without human tracks, the direction of the tracks, snowmobile trails, power lines, under pine trees, decks, boats, trailers, etc in/around these areas that would be great.

On Friday, 2/26/21 at around 9:30 am. a dog matching Rowdi's description was seen walking up Caribou Trail/CR-4, approximately 1/2 mile N of Hwy 61.

On Thursday, 3/4/21 at around 11:30 pm a dog matching Rowdi's description was seen walking across Hwy 61 near Isak's Hardware -just south of Grand View Park (lakeside). She stated the dog was a "lumbering yellow lab".

**After much research and canvassing the area to rule out any local neighborhood "free-roaming yellow labs" we are releasing these sightings**

PLEASE ADHERE TO LOST DOG PROTOCOL

CARRY A LEASH
DO NOT YELL, CHASE or WHISTLE
UPON SIGHTING:
SIT OR LAY ON THE GROUND

NO EYE CONTACT
