Lexi Female Dog
LOST PawBoost ID: 72976694
Lexington, SC 29073
UPDATE!! Saturday morning,06/06, a young lady witnessed a small dachshund/Chihuahua in the road way between the library and the bowling alley on Augusta Rd. in Lexington. She said a very nice, older gentleman stopped traffic and was able to catch her. He said that he would look on Facebook to see if anyone was looking for the dog and he had dachshunds in the past. He put her in his truck, a dark blue or dark green older model Ford or GMC, maybe even a Chevy. It had tools and other stuff in the back with a cord hanging down dragging the road. He turned into the neighborhood on Stoneridge Dr. in Lexington. She described him as an older male, 70-80 years old with white hair. Approximately 5'10" around 200 lbs. I have not been able to locate this person or his truck. If you recognize who this could be or if you have any information regarding Lexi, please contact me. She is dearly missed and my heart is breaking. Please call!! Sandra (839) 246- 8349 Missing dog - Lexington, SC Ten year old reddish-brown miniature dachshund/Chihuahua with tan markings.

Update: The trapper who caught him before is going to set the trap near the area. Don't case, don't call him. We're going to bait and trap him. His name is Tugboat, but he goes by Tuggy or Tug. He looks like a giant yellow lab with white spots and a curved tail. 87-pounds. 15 months old. His collar popped off when he escaped. He's a very sweet dog, but he's a big boy. DO NOT CHASE, CALL ASAP IF SEEN Call or text with information or You can also take him to Final Victory Animal Rescue. He's not at all aggressive, loves to play with dogs, and loves beef, chicken, and all protein. Tug is very timid and is a puppy/youth at 15 months old, and he ran away from his previous foster before we adopted him. He's often scared of strangers, harsh commands, and raised voices. He's in fight or flight mode. He won't even recognize us.

Frequently Asked Questions
I lost my dog. What should I do?
Take advantage of online platforms – they help you get the word out, quickly and easily. You can report your lost dog to PawBoost in no time flat. We'll send an email alert to our local members, post to the PawBoost-powered Facebook page for your area, add your dog to our lost & found, and make a lost dog flyer – all for free.
Other sites that help you raise local awareness for your lost dog with minimal time and effort are Nextdoor.com – a PawBoost partner – and Craigslist.
