These are the kind of things that can happen when the dogs are let out
Above is the face of neglect and, dare I say nefarious crime in the sleepy college town Ruston, Louisiana. Louisiana Tech’s beloved mascot, Tech XX, has gone missing (or perhaps ran away because he was tired of being made to wear shirts). According to one local animal clinic, he was last seen late yesterday when he was let out to handle his business. He did not return.
Please help us find this dog. He was last seen at 1628 E. Kentucky Ave. Ruston Louisiana. He has been missing since 8pm yesterday. He was let out to go to the bathroom and was gone when they came back 5 minutes later. There is a $1000 reward for his safe return. Please contact Sexton Animal Health Center if you have any news about this dog. (318) 251-8283.
No confirmation as to whether Karl Benson has been brought in for questioning yet or not.

Probably the University of Texas. They have a history of stealing dogs.

I am sure he is scared and very confused. I hope he is micro-chipped. I pray he is safely back home very soon.

He probably left in embarrassment after hearing about the price increase of football tickets for this season.

This shit isnt at all funny. English bulldogs are extremely sensitive, and if he was stolen, i hope they catch the person and the moron gets a long prison term. Douchbag.

If this is a prank by some stupid college kids, I hope they learn the hard way. This is a dog, not a symbol of the school, its just a little dog in a shirt. Honestly, do you think the dog has any idea in general that he is a mascot for the school? No… most likely not. This is rediculus. I hope that he gets home safe and that nothing happens to this innocent animal.

I would not think he could travel very far on his own and I assume they searched close by so it seems he had help. I hope whoever has him will return him unharmed. I wonder if he is being held for ransome. Is it possible they would not know who he is???

Everybody understands good prank. Just return the poor dog and collect your $1000. Everybody wins!!!

Here in Ruston we are searching for Tech XX and praying for his safe return. If you see our beloved mascot, please help him find his way home. Our hope is that he is just enjoying a doggy adventure and will suffer no harm along his journey.

I’m sorry but people are losing jobs, black folks are getting arrested for being black, cops are douchbags because they will now stop every black man on the street now because of a damn dog. I lost my best friend my dog, and i grow up and got another one…I went to La Tech but never seen the damn mascot… You know way? Cause I don’t give a fuk about a mascot…

Why wasn’t this dog let out in a secured area? Hope he is found quickly.
18 Suz // Jul 31, 2012 at 12:09 pm
Whoever let him out and did not watch him is stupid, stupid, stupid.

I hope he is brought home safely, but man someone has issues bring up racism when everyone is talking about a dog.
