Just after noon on Dec. 23, police responded to a single vehicle rollover on Highway 21 near the intersection at Highway 575, northeast of the village of Beiseker, Alta.

Angie's owners sayshe's friendly but scares easily.

Angie was spotted by a farmer in the area but remains at large Saturday afternoon.

Her owners are now home and desperately missing their furry friend.
