Out and About

Joyce Charles Enghauser live in North Shores in Navarre and she and her husband Charlie adopted a 10-month-old Beagle from the Pensacola Humane Society last week. The dog had not been treated very well by previous owners and was skittish. The minute she was let go in the backyard she jumped the fence and ran away. North Shores is on the south side of Hwy 98 and Lucy has been spotted on the north side of Highway 98. In fact, I saw her yesterday in front of our office in Harvest Village. I was leaving my office around 9 p.m. and when I walked outside and there was a little Beagle running north on Harvest Village Court – with a red collar. Lucy went to a dark area of the street and I didn’t see here anymore. That had to be Lucy. I immediately called Joyce because she wanted people to call with sightings. The Enghauser’s have a reward for $500 if you can bring her home safely. The phone number is 939-0156.
