A neighbor one street from me called. He was going out to his truck and saw him walking down his drive. So it has been seven weeks but Shellby is now home. I just wanted to let everyone know!
Shelly, the tortoise, has been found

I saw a large turtle on the way out to Slovacheks (sp?) sausage and wondered if it was yours but it wasnt big enough to weigh what yours does.

Your posts have convinced me to buy a turtle one day.

This needs to be a show on animal planet! 7 weeks is a very long time, happy for you he made his way home!

I live a few streets down from Shellby and I have been scanning the ditches and fields whenever we were in the car! I even had my kids looking. So glad he is home now.
That makes my heart smile!!!!!
Post a pic! I want to see a photo of the turtle that caused all the commotion!
I had been keeping an eye out as well but never did see him/her.

How did your dog and new turtle (Speedbump?) react to Shellby's homecoming?

Here is a link to a blog I made of my animals. Shellby is in there.

P.S. We are going to let Shellby and Speedbump meet after we know Shellby is ok. He has been out and about for 7 weeks. You don't know what kind of communicable diseases he could have gotten from those snapping turtles - LOL. I will let you know if we see any half-breeds running around!
How cool!
They have seen each other but not up close. Shane came by and took some pictures of them.
I am so glad he is back in your care! I have checked regularly to see if you found him! Thanks for the update!
