"Margie Spencer, one of the dog handlers on this search was given a scent article belonging to Molly. Margie's dog correctly identified the apartment in which Molly lived prior to her disappearance even though it has been 11 months since she had been there. The dog also correctly identified the Wendy's restaurant that we know Molly had gone to just prior to her disappearance."
