ABANDONED DOG at exit to Punta Abreojos

BajaBlanca - 1-13-2011 at 08:55 AM

OMG, I was told yesterday that the folks who ran the pit stop have left for good. We were just there 2 days ago and I noticed a dog - very quiet - very beautiful - big and light brown colored. I AM SURE HE WAS ABANDONED. Is anyone going by that area today and able to rescue him ????????

Are you talking about the Nuevo Crucero restaurant? hwy 1 cut off?

BajaBlanca - 1-13-2011 at 09:01 AM

yes. it is the most beautiful dog - and I was surprised that it was so quiet, and I was surprised that the restaurant was closed but presumed it was for the day :(

it is closed for good. I am just devastated that someone would do that ...

I know the family that ran it and will check. I am surprised it is closed since it did such a great business.

I don't remember seeing water for the dog and he was just laying on his side .... I should have followed my gut but how do you just take someone else's dog ??????????????

BajaBlanca - 1-13-2011 at 05:23 PM

A neighbor just stopped by and said he saw the dog walking around ... and 2 other cars there .... please, anyone hwo is oging by - give the dog WATER - FOOD - until we find someone to adopt it !!

Very cool looking dog - someone told me it is a golden retriever !!!!

BajaBlanca- When you say the dog was big, would that be in girth or in height as in tall and lanky?

Maybe it's Pickle.....dt


Probably not, too far South...

crazier things have happened..... pickle! what a rad name!

Fairbanks47 - 1-13-2011 at 09:25 PM

Unless someone had picked him up and traveled south with him. Pickle was my daughter's dog and the description Blanca gave interested me.

I'm lost............why take the dog ??

Just leave some food and water...........nuff said.

And I'm a serious dog lover.

Wow, I often think of Pickle. Still have his flyer in my downloads and run across it every so often. Wouldn't that be something? To me he looks a little more Great Dane though.

why? we passed the el rosario dump heading north once. there was a dog, followed by 4 puppies running north along the bluff on the right side. i was screaming for my buddy to stop so i could try to coax a puppy to me, be it with food or friendship. he wouldn't stop or turn around. something about not being able to help them all. i told him i only wanted to take the one who wanted to come along...

i'm still looking for "that" special baja dog.

Our dog was inside the van that rolled and when he got out he ran off into the desert and we were unable to find him after searching hours and days.
His name is Pickle. He is a tan lab/great dane mix. He is very friendly, but I'm sure very scared. He was wearing a collar with a tag that had our numbers on it; both U.S. and Mexico. He was last seen by a witness, running west into the desert at km 224 1/2.
The reward is currently $300 usd, but I am willing to do what it takes to get back my sweet boy.
If anyone has seen him or knows of anything, please let me know.

(This is the same incident that Fairbanks47 posted about)

I just U2Ud Blanca and also sent her an email regarding this photo of Pickle. Wouldn't that be a miracle? Pickle was lost one year ago.

Lauriboats - 1-14-2011 at 08:16 AM

That would be a miracle, cross your fingers.

rts551 - 1-14-2011 at 08:50 AM

This dog has long hair

goldhuntress - 1-14-2011 at 08:59 AM

Darn:(

BajaBlanca - 1-14-2011 at 07:22 PM

I honestly can't say but I think this dog looks more like a golden retriever ... reddish longer hair ... but I sure wish it WAS pickle :)
