Elisabeth Egorova's Sheltie dog escaped from a forest near the Edelweisshütte in the Rax region on Saturday. The owner has launched a large-scale search operation and is now asking for information from the public.

An adorable dog named "Lasty" has been missing in the Rax region since Saturday, November 16. She catches the eye with her light brown, long hair - typical of the Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie) dog breed. However, she is considered to be somewhat timid, which makes the search more difficult.

Lasty" escaped from her owners on Saturday during a hike in a forest about 1.5 kilometers north of the Edelweisshütte on the Lower Austrian border. She has not been seen since.

Search operation in Styria and Lower Austria
The search is now in full swing, reports owner Elisabeth Egorova: "We are searching day and night, splitting up into search areas and even sleeping there. We have also distributed items of clothing and food everywhere." Egorova and dedicated helpers are currently putting up wanted ads in the area, phoning around the huts and have already informed the police, hunters and the like - but so far without success.

Now they are hoping for information from the public: "If anyone sees the dog, please note the GPS coordinates and approximate time and report it to me. Please don't catch it, it may run away," says Egorova. "We are not losing hope," she emphasizes and asks for feedback on 0676/7474367.
