Thanks! I'll try anything. How long will she survive? I hope I find her before my dog does!

lol Everytime one of mine gets out, I almost always find him/her underneath my entertainment center (I use it as a "rack" of sorts).

Yours probably hasn't gotten too far. Just look everywhere low! And inside things!

Leos can survive alot longer than you think. There have been people who have gone 6 months and found their leo very fat and unhappy to see them.
Take furniture from your tank, hides, and plant them in dark warm areas. These will attract your leo. Make sure its warm, use a heat lamp or your heat pads. Also put dishes of mealworms, or whatever you feed them, and water out. Check the hides frequently. You will eventually find your leo resting in one of them. Keep an eye out in other spots also.

Thanks for the help all! I just found him in a closet on the other side of the house. Thank god my dog did not get him. It looks like he may have had a few spiders for a snack. Hope thats ok for him. But hes back safely. Thanks again!
