Two neutered male dogs, a black Flat-Coated Retriever and a yellow Labrador,
were taken from a fenced yard on a farm in rural Outagamie County, Wisconsin.

The dogs’ owners were working in an adjacent yard while the dogs played
outside. There are no tracks leading from the yard except through the gate and
these are not dogs that would run away, even to chase game.

They are both overly friendly and well-behaved.
They are the beloved pets and hunting companions of two young boys who are crying themselves to sleep at night.
The Flatcoat is a 2-year old neutered male named Strider. He is microchipped.
The Labrador is an 8-year-old neutered male named Chance.
Both dogs were wearing collars with ID tags and rabies tags.

There is a substantial reward for information leading to the return of these two dogs.
The owners have contacted the police, theDNR and Game Warden, the Humane Societies and all of their neighbors.
Their veterinarian has been alerted and they are contacting other vets in the area as well as radio stations, newspapers and TV. There are fliers up everywhere.

The microchip for the Flatcoat is in my name.

Please, if you have any information, contact me or the dogs’ owners. They can be reached at:
