Doc, a cattle dog who has become a mascot for the Hillsborough County, Fla., Sheriff's Office's agricultural unit, is believed to be alive, and in the possession of a good Samaritan.
According to Wednesday's News Talk Florida, surveillance cameras at a Shell Station along Palmer Boulevard in Sarasota, Fla., show the dog being hosed off by a man.
In an effort to tempt this man to return the dog to his rightful owners, the sheriff's office has increased the reward for Doc's safe return to $1,000.
Doc disappeared on Saturday after he escaped from a special trailer, near the Fruitville exit in Sarasota County along I-75, following a training exercise.
