LAKEPORT, Calif. – A family is trying to locate the owners of a female dog found wandering on Highway 29 near Lakeport last week.


Troy Goetjen said his wife found the dog, which is back and gray in color.


He said the dog is very good with other pets, likes people – he said she's very good with his children – and obeys well.


If her owners can't be found Goetjen said he wants to help find her a good home. He said she's a good dog and he doesn't want to take her to the pound for fear she would be put down.


Anyone with information about who the dog belongs to is asked to e-mail Goetjen at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
