HOUSTON, TEXAS: The search continues for Christina Johnson, 27, who went missing in Texas after taking her pet dog Max out for a walk on Wednesday, March 6.

Christina Johnson's pet dog Max found seven miles away from home
As the search continued to locate Johnson without any success, her dog Max, a mixed-breed canine was located seven miles from Johnson's residence on Friday, March 15 in the Briar Forest area, as reported by the search organization.
"Christina's dog, Max, has been found approximately 7.5 miles northeast of her residence! Please continue to be on the lookout for Christina," Texas EquuSearch wrote in an update on Facebook.
"Thank you to our volunteers and community partners that helped locate Max! Let's do the same for Christina," they urged in the post.
Christina Johnson left to take her dog Max for a walk but never returned
The non-profit search organization said Johnson left her residence “to take her dog for a walk,” and hasn't been seen since March 6.
Johnson was wearing a black hoodie, blue jean shorts, pink socks, Crocs (color unknown), and carrying a gray backpack.
Her father, Emmanuel Johnson, who reported her missing on March 9 told KHOU that they are in "confusion and a sense of loss."
Emmanuel said his daughter left home on March 6 without her cell phone, adding that his daughter would walk her dog to one of two locations daily, and work on her computer from there.
"She usually comes home before the evening but didn't come back that evening." He informed, "She always has Max with her. The fact we find Max but not her is very alarming," he said.
Christina Johnson's dog Max is rough and has never been out on his own
Emmanuel said that the dog seemed “scared” after being found.
"He's rough right now. And he's been out six or seven days on his own and he's a house dog, never been on his own like that," he added.
"Something ain't right. Obviously, she's in danger, " Emmanuel said who is desperate to find his daughter.
“I believe so because she would have definitely come home on the first day. She may even be held against her will or anything can be going on right now, Lord knows where she is. I have no idea," he told KPRC.
