Dog show pooch on the run at JFK
By Stacey Sager
(Queens-WABC, February 15, 2006) - The search is on for a dog featured in the Westminster Dog Show.
Somehow a Whippet managed to get loose at Kennedy Airport.
Here is what we can tell you: it has been about five hours now and Port Authority Police at Kennedy Airport tell us they have been doing just about everything to try to find this dog.
It wasn't just any ordinary dog. Police confirm it was show dog. They say it was a whippet that just performed at Madison Square Garden.
We are also told this dog may be worth as much as $150,000. Now, with that being said, you can imagine Port Authority Police have been doing an extensive search. They committed eight units since noon today.
The dog and its owners were getting on a Delta flight around noon today at terminal three. Somehow, after this dog was checked in, the dog escaped. We were told the dog was spotted in the marsh area outside of the airport, but then ran off.
The dog answers to the name Vivy and is wearing a white sweater.
