To all folks living in Taman Desa, please keep an eye out for a female mixed-breed dog of slender build and with a light brown coat. Has one floppy (paralysed) ear. Wears a simple silver collar. Responds to the name of Jessie. Tame, playful, bereft of stranger anxiety and street-smarts. Went missing today between 0430 and 0530 hours.

I know the temptation of taking home a lovely, friendly dog that you come across in the street, but think of its family whose tears have run dry from missing that dog. Please help bring Jessie home to us.
