Updated | By Anastasi Mokgobu
Healthy Hound Missing Pet Search Team has confirmed that the remains of missing rescue dog Lamnik Utah (Jett) have been found.
Jett fell into an open manhole in Kilner Park in Pretoria on Saturday while tracking for another search and rescue dog, Jack Russell.
Various organisations and volunteers from Pretoria, including Missing Animals in Benoni, joined the search team on Monday.
In a statement released on Wednesday, Healthy Hound Missing Pet Search Team says they were notified that his body had washed up at a sewerage treatment facility.
"One of our volunteers went out and confirmed that the body is indeed Jett."
Jett's body has since been recovered and will be cremated.
"We would like to thank everyone for your messages and support over this difficult time. In honour of Jett, we will still be working but doing limited searches as some handlers are still recovering physically and the team needs time to grieve.”
