This one and a half year old Berneise Mountain Dog named Jasper went missing the evening of July 4th. His owner launched an all-out media blitz to find him.

Dozens of sightings were reported by strangers and friends who kept a watchful out for the missing 90 pound dog.  Between Facebook, twitter, missing dog posters put up around town — and a few broadcast news stories on ABC 10 – the mission was successful.
