A dog missing for several weeks from Linneus was reunited with its owners after a Maine State Trooper located the dog in the woods near Smyrna and Oakfield.

Missing Dog Found and Returned to Owner

Cpl. Quint with Troop F in Aroostook County found the dog, Sadie, in a wooded area near the Interstate. Quint had searched on Monday also trying to locate the animal, but did not find the dog.

The Maine State Police said Sadie was able to be coaxed and harnessed and put in a cruiser. Police said Cpl. Quint was “not familiar with who the dog belonged to” but had seen the missing dog post on Facebook.
