Westminster Dog Is Missing!

[chocolatepuppy]

I keep checking this hoping someone says they found her. Remember there are still good people out there who would return the dog if they found her. Look at all of us, we would return the dog and I for one would never take a reward for finding someones dog. Let's just hope a 'good' person finds her and she is safe.

That's so sad isn't it? I did say a little extra prayer tonight for
her safe return. Poor baby, she must be so scared.

Im sorry to say, but the odds are agianst her. She is a whippet with VERY short fur and it is freezing in NY. Plus, she is a show dog and if someone wrong finds her......

Poor dog, I hope somebody finds her. A dog lover wouldn't name a price for their dog, obviously they are worried about a prize Possesion. I wouldn't fly a dog alone anyway, especially at a larger commercial airline.

all we can do is keep our fingers crossed and prayers going Vivi's way.

[Alysser]

Yeah, I hope she gets found. Poor girl

She must be freaking out in all the storms and cold! If they find her she will be very traumatized That knocks two top contenders out for traumatizing expireances (Deromt the pug too) I just hope she doesn't find some place dangerous to shelter. I'm so worried

This story was all over national news last night. The owner thinks the dog may be dead because it was seen running towards water. She was really upset and said she brought the dog to work with her everyday. There is a reward out and they said everybody in NYC is probably out looking for this dog. I hope it's found and soon. It's going to get VERY cold in the Northeast the next few days. Poor thing.

I was just wondering...why don't they bring in a tracking dog to search for her? Seems to me it would stand a much better chance of finding her that a human would.

[Suki Wingy]

good point!

[ramanth]

I hope the poor thing is found soon before the cold gets to her.

Has anyone seen the story that CNN Headline News is running today about the missing Whippet? Did anyone find it as offensive and a mockery of the situation as I did? They're being sarcastic and comical about this little dog's disappearance. I was so angry, I emailed them about it and asked them to please stop making light of such a tragic story. I told them that we have enough problems with animal abuse and neglect in this country and there's no point in them making a joke about it to encourage such ignorance to continue. I asked them how they would feel if one of their human children were missing like that and I pointed out how many people throughout the world see their pets as family members. Grrrrrrr!!!

[elizabethann]

No I didn't see it. I'm so glad you emailed them. I will watch CNN tonight to see if they talk about it and I'll check their website.

OMG Poor Vivi! I hope they find her soon

[Daisy and Delilah]

Thanks. I just think it stinks and I'm shocked that they would be so unfeeling and so careless. What in heaven's name would they find humorous about this story? I know they must have some caring pet owners as their employees. I also told them that I'm sure I'm not the only person they have heard from today about this as well. Many people, that don't love animals as we do, would feel I'm over re-acting but I don't think I am All I need to know is how it made me feel.

I haven't received a reply back to my email as of yet but I noticed the last time they ran the story, the two commentators at the desk, seemed to be a little more sympathetic about how this story will most likely end up I just hope that my begging in the email had some influence on somebody.
