A scary few hours turned into a happy ending thanks to the Fork River Fire Department and Kate Polloway and Bob Johnson are forever grateful.
Earlier this week when Kate was heading to Brandon, the family dog Landy escaped and the search to find him began at around 11 a.m. About five hours later at 4:30, Landy was spotted and he tried to make his way back through the field and got lost along the Mink River. The banks were drifted very high and the snow was up to everyone's waist.
So Kailey Landers and Alicia Zurba tracked him to the bush across from Kyle Toews' house. The snow was too deep; however, so that's where the Fork River Fire Department came in. They followed Landy's tracks on Skidoos and eventually found him hunkered down in the snow but he wouldn't come to them.
So Kailey hopped on the Skidoo with Matt and ultimately, Landy was able to get on the sleigh and he was pulled back to safety. Kailey wants to thank Matt Zurba, Kyle Toews and Corey Toews for what they did.
"It wouldn't have happened without you guys, we are so thankful," said Landers. "It was so kind of them to come and help, it was a great outcome. And my auntie and uncle were very happy to have their dog back."
