I am no expert but pretty suspicious that now the dog had tumors and the injury may not have been what they thought. I get it though, they need to follow all leeds and keep as much info secret until final determination is made. Just hoping for her safe return.

I saw the photo of the property, lots of rip-rap along the shoreline :-(

www.eyeonannapolis.net/2013/03/04/msp-update-on-robin-pope/The Pope family dog, an 11-year-old Great Dane, had been found dead Saturday in the water along the shoreline near a pier at a neighboring home. A Queen Anne’s County veterinarian examined the dog today and found there were no external traumatic injuries to the dog, as originally suspected. The dog had large tumors in its upper torso region. The veterinarian said the dog did not drown, nor did it die from external injuries. An exact cause of death has not been determined and additional tests are underway. Investigators have searched homes and vehicles used by the Popes and conducted numerous interviews with families and friends. Police continue to consider all possibilities and have ruled nothing out. Investigators continue to urge anyone with information about Robin Pope to contact them immediately at 410-758-1101. The Maryland State Police Homicide Unit, assisted by investigators from the State Police Criminal Enforcement Division, the Queen Anne’s County Sheriff’s Office, and uniform personnel from the Natural Resources Police, Sheriff’s Office and State Police, is continuing the investigation.

I did read tonight on my FB page that there was a search that started today @ 4:30 pm. It was an organized search. The park gates close right at dusk so I am hoping that they were able to cover some ground. I have requested to stay posted if there is another search as I would like to get more involved. (this was done by a small group of the oldest daughter's friends) Trying to keep the spirit of her life alive and that she will be found safe.

islandgirl - If you find out when the next search will be, let us know. I'm sure there will be some participants.

This puzzled me too. With all the rain lately, it seems the current should be moving rapidly towards the ocean. Just seems odd.

This is on FB, I'm wondering why this search is not scheduled till March 10th...is that a typo and it was the search this past Sunday? www.facebook.com/events/454081684661760/I know there are sensitivities here, hoping for the best and people don't want to assume the worst, but this is social media. When the news of her disappearance first came out, I said to my wife, we've seen her before and I think I've talked to her husband at cruise ins in the past...does he have a '69 Mach 1? I believe the picture that is being shown of her with dark hair is not current...is it? Her FB page is still up and photos of her there I think are more current. My wife and I have seen them either at the Jetty or Red Eye's, maybe as late as this past fall. I recall her having lighter hair, I would think that would be more helpful with the search, I'm surprised there not being used unless she recently went dark. Maybe there is more then one Robin Pope, they look like the same person to me though. The husband had a FB page...it's down now.

IF anyone wanted to dispose of evidence and they had knowledge of crabbing sites away from that exact location....they could go to those areas that would have more....opportunistic....inhabitants....and utilize those environments. ONLY a loose set of ideas not meant to indicate anything that actually did or did not happen. PURELY hypothetically speaking to a generalized scenario.

I am assuming no foul play at this time. Nothing found to date (blood, theft, signs of struggle, etc) indicates she was forcibly taken. It is just an uncomfortable feeling that this happened so close to my home.

There is a helo flying around the area of their house and bay and over Price creek this morning, each pass the area increases a bit for more coverage. I would guess with the possibility of heavy snow they have stepped up their search for a body.

It is the same couple you are thinking of. Husband has a classic mustang. Photo is not current. They have been searching every day since Saturday. A large organized search happened this evening. There are more planned all through this week. There have been dive teams there every day as well as helicopter searches. Sad news for KI.
