Family Looking for Lost Dog in South Fayette

Have you seen this missing Jack Russell Terrier named Patch? He was last seen Jan. 1 after he left his South Fayette home.

Have you seen this missing Jack Russell Terrier named Patch? This 10-year-old dog went missing from his owner’s home near County Line Road in South Fayette on Jan. 1 and hasn’t been seen since. His owner, Michelle, said they let him outside and he apparently smelled an animal and followed the scent. She said he was also apparently bothered by fireworks in the area on New Year’s Eve. “We thought he’d come back,” Michelle said. “He usually does.” Patch is wearing a purple collar, but does not have tags. Anyone with information on Patch is asked to call Michelle at 412-969-3103.

Owner Jennifer Garfold said her family misses their lost dog, Bella, very much.
