Christina Kiger’s bulldog, Gus, was in the front yard equipped with an invisible fence Oct. 4. Kiger’s daughter went outside to play with him and realized he was missing. The family, neighbors and community members have been searching ever since.

Facebook page for Gus has over 1,000 likes. Kiger said Gus is well-known in the neighborhood.

“We’re just really hoping that one of these people can pick up on the person that knows something or has seen him or can get us a lead to where he is,” Kiger said.

Kiger said her family is heartbroken and views Gus as a family member.

“We want him back. He should have the freedom to be able to roam in the front yard and we not fear that he be stolen,” Kiger said. “He’s our buddy. We love him . . . We’re missing him every single day after six weeks and we just really, really want him home.”

Gus is neutered and has a microchip.

A $1,500 reward is being offered for Gus’ safe return. Kiger said no questions will be asked of the person who returns Gus.

“They can literally take him to a humane society and give them their name. If they have him and their name, we will give them the reward. We just want him back — that’s it,” Kiger said. “If they’re too scared of prosecution, just turn him in, leave their name and we will give a reward.”
