Missing Wilmington Dog May Have Been Seen Again in North Reading

The owners of a dog missing since mid-October have been reporting several sightings of the missing pooch, most recently in the North Reading area.

On Wednesday, there was a possible Buddy sighting on Forest Street at the North Reading/Middleton line near Harold Parker Forest. Buddy’s owners say the location makes sense following Buddy’s direction of travel so far.

A week ago on Jan. 7, buddy was spotted at the Hood Elementary School in North Reading.

Buddy has been missing from the Richmond Road, Aldrich St. area in Wilmington since Oct. 14. Since then he’s been most recently spotted in the North Reading area. Prior to that when he first went missing he was seen in Tewksbury at Shawsheen and Ballard Streets, as well as in Wilmington at the North Intermediate School at the corner of Rte. 125 and Rte 62.

Last month a feeding station was set up in a yard where Buddy had been seen eating cat food left out. A camera was set up to see if they could capture an image and they did. But they still haven’t been able to bring him home.

Buddy is a 6-year-old Lab/Shepherd mix and weighs 75 pounds. Buddy is friendly and outgoing and is wearing a collar and tags. He has a very curly tail and purple markings on his tongue.
