Has anyone been able to get in touch with Janet? I mean there seems to be alot of questions that need to be answered, like
1.is he Chipped
2. Has anyone gone to where he disappeared?
3. Are the temporary owners searching? What have they done?
4. Has anyone put out a have a heart trap? If so what locale? Anyone checking it?
5. Any sightings in the area?
I think its great that the community has come together to help find Angus, but I think these answers need to be answered to help move the search forward so they are giving the appropriate details to shelters/rescues/animal clinics. Can someone Contact Janet to find out these answers?!
I'm trying right now it is 9:06,and I have got no answer on her cell.I have asked that she try to call me either tonite,or if she ca'nt call me,possibly even post to scan & read the posts.
I'm so worried about her,when we said goodbye last night,she was crying.I know everyone here is opening up thier arms and wrapping Janet,Angus,Alan,Russel,and saying prayers.We can only stay positive.If I do not hear from her tomorrow,we will go forward and do what we can as far as radio,TV.She is extremely appreciative for all the support from everyone here.
With spotty internet because of storms,I'm not sure how much she can even read.I do know she can check mail at work.
I do know that Janet was in Canton,as she had a scheduled home health care visit,it was canceled,but she went anyhow.She told me she went close to the area of the residance,and stood out beside her car,and sang songs,she called & called.
I know,at the moment she turned her key off,she had hopes that Angus would come running at the sound of her voice.But that did not happen.Which only led to more despair. She stayed and walked,sang,and nothing.
I talked with Janet very early this am.And I told her Brian & I would travel there,to split up,and go to the area.
Unfortuneatley,Janet said it was not a wise thing to do,as it is not safe.Many people own firearms,and they unfortuneatle take trespassing seriously.And we may or could be in danger,if we were to be in the wrong place. I was not going to post the particulars about our phone conversation.But Janet said it is not safe there.
One comparison she made as far as the area of where Canton NC is,and the direct area Angus is lost in and hopefully is ok,is like finding a dog in the middle of Yellowstone National park.it is huge,vast.
The hay stands as high or higher than her.Unless someone,hunter,is walking the areas,and sees him,knows there is a reward etc..it would be his only probable reason for turning him in to the shleter.I know that soun'ds terrible,but its probably the truth.
I do know she has had contact finally with the trial home folks.I do believe they have talked to all the neighbors.But in my opinion,they may not be doing enough.
I don't mean to sound hateful,but one has to exhaust every measure,before you give up.And you can't always rely on someone calling animal control becuase they see a stray.I would hate that Angus would come face to face with somoeone that would hurt him.
I do not know if any of the shelties are chipped.nor do I have an answer to the Have-a-Heart Trap.
Yes..we do need some answers.I will tell you,this has been so very difficult for everyone.I know Janet & family is crushed.So much bad news this week.
Janet just called me.She is not at home at the moment,Russel is home,and she has no idea if they have internet connection.
One thing that Janet did say,is that in her talk with the family,they are treating this as though Angus no longer belongs to Janet.He is thier dog,so in some ways,Janet is very torn.
She did say she will try for internet when she arrives home,and try to give answers.And maybe she can give us some idea of if we can go forward in contacting radio,TV stations.
I know,if it were my dog,lost,I would not rest.I told her that I did not want her to think I was being rude,but Angus is thier dog, I feel.
He was only on a trial basis,as far as I am concerned,they have shown in some ways to be just a tad irresponsible in having a new dog in thier home.And not taking better measures to ensure his comfort those first few days.
Again,thank you everyone. Keep them in yor prayers please.He may be on his way home for all we know.Let's hope
SO If I were Janet given the circumstances I would just rely on its her and her family in the hunt than for Angus and not involve the temporary family at all! 
. I will continue to pray, lift ALL of you up for continued strength to get through this..
