Search goes on for missing dog after Mayfield tornado
MAYFIELD, Ky. (AP) – A Murray State student who lost most of his belongings in a tornado earlier this month is continuing his search for his beloved dog, who was torn from his arms during the twister.
The Paducah Sun reports that Matt James, his girlfriend Brie Keyes and her mother Lisa have been following up on about 20 reported sightings of Ruger from Mayfield to Paducah. Ruger is a 2-year-old male blue heeler.
The three of them have teamed up with Jamie Katz, a Florida-based pet detective, to strategically place signs across western Kentucky to raise awareness about the dog.
James was injured by a tornado near Mayfield on May 10 while seeking shelter with Ruger and his girlfriend inside his garage.
