She (the owner), lied about the dogs' value? What else did the owner(s) lie about? How about the dog losing at Westminster, and now the poor animal has no more value to them? Maybe they are claiming it's missing for financial reasons. How many witnesses around that time have actually seen the dog? Did they see the people check the dog in? You have to actually verify that the dog was checked in. Not insinuating anything, just interested in the facts. Any updates yet?If it was Ted Kennedy's dog they would have had the Navy out searching the ocean off JFK for the dog. I bet the Rats ate it.
