Hello Friends of Pets! 
 
 We are a group of caring people wanting to help this family who lost their dog in Yellowstone National Park on July 23rd, 2015 while vacationing there. 
 
 Jades parents were in a horrible head on collison in the park by a person who fell asleep at the wheel. David suffered multiple injuries and had to be flown out of Yellowstone from the crash site for treatment for his numerous injuries at the time of the accident. 
 
 When the park rangers were trying to get their dog Jade out of the car (her crate she was in was crushed to pieces), Jade bolted and has been lost in the park ever since. There has been multiple sightings of Jade in the park, most lately in the Cannyon Village area. SHE IS STILL ALIVE! Which is unheard of in the Wildest place in the country. She is a young, strong dog and has been able to survive somehow against all odds. There are efforts going on daily trying to catch Jade in live traps and many other methods that are allowed by the park. So far to no avail, but NO ONE is giving up hope. Jades parents....David Sowers and Laura Gillice as well as Davids daughter, Angie Sowers, have made numerous trips back to Yellowstone (against doctors wishes), to look for their beloved pet. They travel from Denver, Co. to the park which is a 550 mile trip. You can only imagine the expense this is causing the family to take on as well as the mounting medical bills. We all want Jade to be found and returned to her family that is missing her so much. They have shown over and over again how much they love her by the trips back and forth to the park and sending clothes with their smell on them and even now they are going to leave a car in the area in hopes Jade will go to it. So many efforts are on going to catch this pup....We need help for them....we need help to bring Jade home. If you can help with ANY small donation to the family of Jade it will be so much appreciated. If you are visiting the park and can join the efforts, that too is all appreciated. Every little bit helps to get Jade back home...SAFE! Thank you for any consideration in helping the many who love Jade now as our own...She is a part of us all and we all want her caught and safe again in the arms of her loving family. 
 
 Thank you so much!

– Dave Sowers' head-on car collision while on vacation in Yellowstone was traumatic enough: He was airlifted and broke his arm, leg, and ribs. But he awoke to the news that his dog Jade had fled from park rangers who tried to pull her from the car, and was nowhere to be found. What followed was a 42-day search—complete with fliers, a few dozen volunteers, and GoFundMe and Facebook pages—for the 18-month-old Australian shepherd, largely headed up by Sowers' girlfriend, Laura Gillice, reports the Missoulian. But in the end, it was Gillice, on a walk with her own dog, Laila, who spotted Sowers' canine pal near Canyon Village. "She just came running to me, like ‘Where’ve you been mom?'" says Gillice. When the trio returned to the hotel where Sowers was staying, she says, a "hugfest" ensued. "A lot of people have just dedicated their weekends to looking for her," says Sowers. "It’s amazing, we didn’t think we’d ever see her again."
