Chapter 35

“Okay, I’ll play. How?”

“I’ve accessed the records of the various animal control offices in the area, looking for any reports of increased sightings of Bullmastiffs. Your breed is large enough that people might, and do, let animal control know when they see one or more wandering free in whatever city or town.”

“Okay. That makes sense. And?”

“From what I’ve determined, the pack stays in one area for a couple of months, if it’s a small town, to up to a year in larger cities. Now this is all conjecture, of course, but logical, I think.”

“I agree. Is there a pattern to where they’ve been? Do you know where they are at the moment?”

“If I’m right, in the last ten years they moved south from Walden to Grand Lake to Granby to the Silverthorne-Frisco area. Then west along I-70. The last sighting, for lack of a better word, was in Palisade, which is just east of Grand Junction. That was a month ago.”

“So they may be in Grand Junction by now.”
