REWARD OFFERED: Search Continues In Malvern For Injured Dog

Jake, a black Newfoundland dog, is still missing in Malvern.

He was last seen along Route 30.

He is not wearing any collar or other form of identification. He answers to Jake.

He has a shaved stomach and is recovering from abdominal surgery. He is in need of medical attention.

Malvern’s Veterinary Referral Center, one of the organization’s leading the manhunt for Jake, posted the following update on Tuesday afternoon:

As many of you have been asking, we wanted to provide an update: Jake is still missing. We are working closely with two volunteers that work with Main Line Animal Rescue, and are specialty certified in recovering lost dogs. We are looking forward to working directly with these two volunteers and getting Jake reunited with his family as soon as possible. While we appreciate the overwhelming offer to help search from the community Jake is scared and he is likely to run, if approached. So If you do see him, do not try to approach him. Please call us immediately so we can coordinate efforts with animal rescue.

A reward is being offered for Jake’s capture.

Searchers are asked to please not use other dogs to find Jake, as they will scare him away.
