Lee Brice Shares The Best Possible Update After Asking For Help Finding His Missing Dog
A happy ending after all. (No pun intended if you’re familiar with Lee Brice‘s 2007 single “Happy Endings”).
Brice shared good news with fans this morning after putting out the call for help yesterday from the Nashville community to find his missing – and pregnant – dog, Charlee.
According to Brice, Charlee “slipped away from home,” and since then he had been on a desperate search to find their missing dog.
“We’ve searched every back road, called every shelter, and prayed harder than we ever have.”
Brice didn’t share the exact location that she went missing from, but said that by now she could be pretty much anywhere in the greater Nashville area:
“She could be anywhere in or around the Nashville area… by now she could be anywhere from way south of Franklin, to past Dickson west of town, or any surrounding areas.”
And he also shared a heartfelt message to his beloved dog while asking the community to keep their eyes out:
“Charlee, if you’re out there, hang on, my pretty girl. Daddy’s coming for you. To everyone reading this, y’all know how much our four-legged friends mean to us country folks. If you’ve seen a pregnant dog that looks like her, or heard anything at all, please message me, comment below, or share this post. Any little clue could bring her home to her babies… and to us.”
His post got a ton of response from the community, with many suggesting hiring a drone company to search for the dog or providing other helpful tips to get her back home.
And luckily, it worked.
Last night, he shared the news of a possible sighting in the Kingston Springs area of Tennessee, after a dog that was possibly Charlee had been spotted on a security camera.
Brice shared the good news this morning that Charlee had been found, and though she does have a broken leg, it seems like she’s going to be just fine:
“Here she is in her bed. Her little leg is broken but she’s gonna fix that. She’s so happy to be home, I’m so happy to have her home. Thank y’all so much for all y’all did, all my friends texting me and everybody on social media and all that. I’m just so glad I did that because, man, 24 hours to find, you know, somebody so special.
Appreciate y’all again and again.”
You love to see it.
Hopefully Charlee heals fast from her injury, but there’s no doubt that Brice is over the moon to have his baby home.
As he said in his original post, dogs are more than pets: They’re family members. It’s not a stretch to say that I like my dog better than most people, and I couldn’t imagine the mess I would be if she went missing for two weeks, or the relief and happiness I would feel when I got her back.
But a favor to ask of Lee Brice: Don’t worry about writing a song about the ordeal. I can’t handle dog songs, because I always end up an emotional mess.The post Lee Brice Shares The Best Possible Update After Asking For Help Finding His Missing Dog first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
