Sheriff Jones was relieved after the search was over. She was more than happy to announce that the little girl was found.
Numerous volunteers showed up to help to find the girl. They searched the wooded area nearby, which had a creek running through it. The dog was by her side when she was found but run away when rescuers came close. Volunteers ran after the dog, but couldn’t keep up with it. However, the dog later returned home on its own.
When Vadie was found, she had a few scratches on her knees and forearms but was in good condition.
The rescue team heard the dog barking, then little Vadie showed up and they saw her ginger hair.
The Sides family was relieved when their little girl was found safe and sound. They were so grateful to all the volunteers and the police who joined the search.
When Vadie was found, she drank Gatorade and wasn’t really making a big deal of her disappearance. Such a brave little girl. Thanks to the dog, she survived in the woods.
