The formation of a Facebook fan page, local news coverage, and extensive efforts by volunteers to search and hand out Lost Dog fliers has finally paid off - Daisy has been found.
According to Joe Panz of Rescue Ink, Daisy was being fed by someone that works at an area hotel. A friend recognized Daisy as the dog featured in the Lost Dog fliers and the contact phone number was called. A quick scan of Daisy's microchip confirmed that she was indeed, the lost dog.
According to the Bring Daisy Home Facebook fan page, Daisy's California owners had flown out to Newark on the weekend of September 4th to assist in the extensive city search. Continental Airlines flew the family out to the Newark area several times so that they could join in on the searches.
Accolades to the Rescue Ink crew, as well as the many other volunteers, that spent countless hours handing out, and posting, thousands of fliers for the wayward dog. Daisy is a lucky dog indeed.

Newark, NJ - The Rescue Ink crew, known as the Army for the animals, is scouring the streets of Newark, searching for a dog that was lost on a flight layover between Syracuse and San Diego.
Daisy, a 4 yr-old Shepherd/Lab mix was lost 14 days ago when she broke free while being transferred from one crate to another on a layover at Newark Liberty International Airport. The wayward dog has been spotted many times, but has not yet been captured.
Daisy was flying on Continental Airlines. The airline is offering a $1000 reward for her return, and they have flown Daisy's family to Newark twice to help search for the lost dog.
On the local front, the Rescue Ink team has been busy handing out posters with Daisy's photo, and walking the streets, searching for the dog.
Searchers are concerned about Daisy - she is a house dog, now living on the streets without a source of food or water. To make matters worse, it has been exceptionally hot during the time that Daisy has been missing.
Hopefully the California house dog has what it takes to survive the long days and nights alone on the streets of Newark.
