Black dog found on Wren Ln.

I hate to bring bad news to someone out there but while walking our dogs this evening on Wren Ln., we noticed a vulture down the embankment so we looked down expecting to find a deer carcass. Unfortunately it was that of a med.-sized black dog, possibly a lab mix with med. to longer hair near the belly area. It appeared to be a female and we could not see a collar. It also appeared to have rolled down the bank and was resting against a tree - maybe hit by a car? As you come up Skyline and turn right to go up Wren, it is on the left-hand (the low side) side, about 100 - 150 feet passed the second driveway on the right. Not to be gross, but follow the odor.
I am almost positive it was not there yesterday and it looked recent. If someone is looking for this dog, my heart goes out to them.
BTW, it is definitely not a Pekingese.

Terrible news. Our gal was recovered, but my heart breaks for the owners.

Is there a possibility that one of us could give him a burial?

Unfortunately, I think it is too late. I think the vultures have done their job because the smell has lessened. I couldn't bear to look down there today. I said earlier that my heart went out to the owners but now I am wondering if no one was looking for this dog. If that is the case, my heart goes out to the dog even more.

Me too. Poor little one. Rest In Peace.
