The dog's owner Laura Colombo said Tuesday night that Gilly was sighted later Tuesday near Cedar Lane and Hilltop Road (see map below) in the Vienna area.

"Normally she would come but she's very frightened now," Colombo said in an email Tuesday night to Patch. "People should not run after her. They could try calling her but best would be to try to follow her and call us." She's afraid of traffic, storms and loud noises.
