People all over the state of Louisiana have been keeping up with 'Scrim-sightings' and posting pictures and locations where he had been spotted. 4WWL reported that search crews were searching nightly with net guns, and local veterinarians were equipped with tranquilizer darts.

After 6 months, a disheveled and wounded Scrim was found alive by some miracle on Wednesday, October 23rd.

He appeared to be fine for the most part, but he was completely matted, missing part of his ear, had two pellet gun bullets lodged in him, and was missing a few teeth.

Unfortunately, this would be a brief reunion.

Scrim Receives Proclamation From New Orleans City Council Days Before Second Escape

On November 8th, Scrim and his recovery team were honored with a proclamation from the New Orleans City Council "recognizing Scrim’s incredible rescue journey and the collective effort that brought our city together with the single goal of getting him safe.

The proclamation will be displayed proudly alongside his portrait at the front entrance of the rescue building. In addition, a special gift bag filled with treats, toys, and even a Christmas collar was presented to him!"

Scim, being the escape artist, decided that the best way to celebrate his return was by busting through the second-story window of his home and running away again.

Watch Scrim Fall 13 Feet And Escape Once Again:

SCRIM UPDATE:

At 8:44 Friday morning, Scrim busted out of a window on my 2nd floor and jumped 13 feet to the ground and began running.

He was last seen in the Carrollton neighborhood on Spruce between Joliet and Dante, when the battery on his GPS collar died. The Scrim team have put fliers up in the neighborhood and are going door to door today.

Trust me when I say that there is nothing negative that you can say to me or about him getting loose again that I haven’t already said to myself in the last 24 hours. I am not focusing on his escape but focusing all my mental energy on safely capturing him again.

This situation is the most unbelievable scenario that I’ve ever had to deal with. I’m not giving up. It took all of us coming together to find him last time. I am asking for your help again.

If you see him, please text me at FiveOhFour.231.7865.

In the incident captured on a Nest camera, you see Scrim plop down on the walkway after falling 13 feet and squeeze through the gate. It truly is an impressive jump for such a small dog.

Most recently, he was spotted on November 16th heading down Tchoupitoulas by the Children’s Hospital.

If spotted, Text FiveOhFour..231.7865 with a location.
