I found the dog's body mentioned by friends of Marla D. I stopped and walked back to the body. I cannot tell definitively that this dog is or is not
the missing dog. Many things would lead one to believe it might be. It was a black long-haired collie-type dog with white markings and back feet.
However, it did not have a collar and appeared to be a female, not male, dog. It appeared to have died several days ago.
I gently examined the body, and sent a prayer for this animals's spirit out over the Sea of Cortez as I moved its body over the guardrail and securely
off the roadside. Had the collar been on the dog I'd have removed it for its owners.
I'll contact the people in the craigslist notice with my findings. To lose a beloved pet while traveling is a dreadful experience. I wish my findings
were more conclusive, as I'm sure they want closure. |
