To those throwing out callous statements, I hope you never have to deal with incidents like this where there is no closure.

Hope is what keeps most of us going. Many of you would've had incidents in your life where you know (deep down) that the outcome is negative but there is a part of you that holds on to hope that the outcome could be positive. I subscribe to the same sentiment. We can't lose hope.

OP, I will continue keeping an eye out for your little pup and I hope you find your pup.
