Shiloh went missing from Wide Open Wilderness Campground, in Urbania, when she was spooked by thunder.
She is a 19-month old German Australian shepherd (German shepherd and Australian shepherd). She was not wearing a collar but she is microchipped.
Friendly, but skittish and loud voices will frighten her.
If you can help Shiloh get back home call Colchester Animal Control at 902-897-3170 or Karla at 902-877-7017.
