My daughters pooch has escaped and gone missing. He's been spotted all over Calgary today it was east of nose hill thorncliffe area and parks. See her post below. He's a big white (dirty) grand Pyrenees. He's a rescue, super timid, if you approach him he will just bolt so please just note the time and direction and text my daughter.

I hope you find the dog soon. I suspect a big dog like that won't go unnoticed and will be reunited with its owner soon. If I was anywhere near Calgary I'd be happy to help look for him. But seeing how I am not I will just send positive thoughts and vibes that way.
 
When I was a kid we had a shepherd collie mix. He would leave on adventures on a regular basis. Each time the absence got longer until it became somewhere around 3 or 4 weeks. Then he left one last time and never came back. We never did find out what happened to him but I suspect it wasn't good.
 
Best of luck John. Hopefully someone will report in soon. Couple years back, somehow our gate didn't get shut properly & our relatively new dog then decided to go wandering. She didn't know the neighborhood well & some busy streets close buy. It was not a fun time. Luckily found her a few blocks away playing with a young girl. My wife's cell number was stamped on her tag but of course she was out of town or whatever right then. I've thought about some kind of electronic cell phone tracking gizmo, but.... yet another one of those things you don't need until you need.
 
Put the word out to all the local Humane Societies and Recue groups. Most areas also have local lost dog Facebook pages.
Hopefully the dog is microchipped and tattooed. There are MARN groups as well, Missing Animal Response Networks, that can help with locating and tracking lost pets. Pyrs can wander for quite a distance so hit up the nearby towns and suburbs as well.
Good luck.
