MISSING EQUINE Cajun Cupid, Near Elizabeth City, NC, 27909

NetPosse Report ID # : 2122 (7062)
Description : During Thanksgiving dinner on 11/28/2013 (about 1800-1830 hours) we heard Cupid's pasture mate whinny. Upon going out to the barn to feed and take care of the horses later that evening (about 2000 hours) I realized Cupid was missing. I walked the pasture fence line several times and found all gates intact and all wire fencing intact except for one area where the bottom wire was broken. That evening, I traveled Horseshoe Road and searched with a spotlight and didn't see any signs of Cupid. The next morning (11-29-2013), I examined the area surrounding the pasture and found several very deep hoof marks where the fence had been broken, almost like Cupid had been running and slipped, falling and sliding through the bottom of the fence. A neighbor's dog has recently been terrorizing the horses, so this seems very possible. There were also lots of hoof prints outside of two (out of three) gates to the pasture, like she was trying to get back into the pasture. I also found several hoof prints leading away from the pasture towards Horseshoe Road. A search was organized for Saturday morning, 11-30-2013. A recovery dog was brought out and followed Cupid's scent for about half a mile northwest on Horseshoe road, and we observed several marks that looked like they could be hoof prints. We searched surrounding roads (Possum Quarter Road, Horseshoe Road, County Street, and Ferry Road) and were unable to find anything. I will be printing out flyers and distributing them and I have been in contact with our local Sheriff's department and they are aware of the situation. I have been keeping them updated with our efforts as well.
