Buddy, her bull mastiff cross, has been missing since Monday.
She fears he's been taken, possibly pinched from the street.
He's not the type of dog to wander too far, according to the Aldershot woman
He's got a place in a loving home, a girlfriend across the road and friends in the street.
Ms Hodges said that because of Buddy's breed she automatically assumed the worst when he went missing - that he'd been taken to be used pig hunting or to breed pig hunters.
Maryborough police are unaware of any ongoing problems of this type.
But it doesn't ease Ms Hodges' worried mind - and she says as a rescued dog with a placid nature, Buddy could never enjoy that kind of life.
"The people who own (his girlfriend) took him in after some people had used him as a pigging dog and he was mistreated - he was belted and starved...," Ms Hodges said.
"But Buddy just decided to move in with us when our old dog Turbo died.
"He's a gentle giant, he's very polite.
"He sits down and shakes hands, he's very polite with other dogs.
"There's not a mean bone in his body."
Ms Hodges isn't hoping for miracles, just to see her little guy back home.
She'll ask no questions and hold no grudge.
Buddy, 3, is a whole bull-mastiff cross, 90cm tall, with a black and white coat.
He went missing near Marshal Rd and Silver St, Aldershot.
He is registered but not microchipped.
