Dog who saved her family missing – reward offered for Luna’s return

Around 10:30 p.m., Saturday evening, July 24, Luna the dog broke loose from her Point of Woods home tether to chase a deer. She hasn’t been seen since and her family, whose lives she is credited with saving about four years ago, are desperately seeking her return.

We’ll let Luna’s “mom” Emily Williams Lambert, explain their beloved dog’s special place in this family’s heart:

“Late Saturday night, July 24 around 10:30 p.m., she got loose trying to chase after a deer and we haven’t seen her since. She was attached to her leash when she ran.

“Luna is 6 years old, approximately 40 pounds, and is beige with a white chest. Her back right leg was operated on in May, so you can still see where she was shaved. Luna is friendly and loves treats and snuggles.

“Like most pet owners, we adore her and feel life is better with her in it. I am a firm believer that she is the reason that my three kids, husband and myself are alive and well today – she alerted us in the middle of the night that our house was on fire and we were all able to escape unharmed.

“There will be a reward offered for her safe return. We have searched both sides of Point O’ Woods, High Knob, Lake Front Royal and hung posters. We just want her home, safe and sound,” Emily told Royal Examiner.

And now we are telling you – Has anyone seen Luna or believe they may have, and might be able to offer information to help reunite her with the family who loves her, and owes her, so much?

Remember her name, and if you see Luna, call her and maybe offer some of those snuggles or treats as a reward for coming to you. And then call the Lambert family at 540 622-4373.

We’d LOVE a happy ending to this story.
