Lola and Bogey found safe along Russell Creek 2022-07-24 - Adair Co., KY - Photo from Chris Wilson. Chris writes, "Thank you everyone for the many calls, texts and messages. We have thankfully found our dogs along a farm about 1 & 1/2 miles down the creek. Jill Wilson performed a swift water rescue once she heard the little one (Bogey) whimpering in a field up off the bank - the dog recognized her voice and suddenly plunged into the water, followed by Lola, the grown dog. Simon and good friend Tanner Foster came to the rescue to help load up everyone out of the creek. Also, a BIG thanks to one of Wilson's former clients- Gordon 'Terry' Neal who helped guide them to an exit point on Russell Creek just before dark. Praise the Lord for a happy ending! Thanks everyone." Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
