| Westminster Dog Escapes at JFK Airport NEW YORK (AP) -- A canine contestant in this week's Westminster Kennel Club show escaped from its cage at John F. Kennedy International Airport and was believed to be on the loose in the surrounding area, authorities said. The dog, a whippet, broke free Wednesday around noon and still hadn't been found hours later, said Tiffany Townsend, a spokeswoman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs area airports. Port Authority police were working with the dog's owners to search the area where planes arrive and depart, she said. "They're looking every possible place they can to see if they can locate the dog," Townsend said. She said she did not know where the cage had been when the dog escaped or where its owners had been heading. The airport, in Queens area of the city, covers more than 4,900 acres. Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines Inc. said it was working with local authorities to retrieve the dog. http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/02/15/mis....ap/index.html |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I saw that on the news - they had Helicopters searching for that poor baby - Wonder if they do that when a Non show dog escapes ? I sure would hope so ....but doubt it. I hope they find the little guy and it seems pretty careless that he could have got out of his travel cage so easily |

| Just saw on the local news that they still haven't found the poor baby! Don't you know it was freezing last night. At least today it was in the low 60s. Tonight and this weekend is another story...

| I really hope I am wrong but I bet someone stole her. I am sure she is microchipped so hopefully a knowing vet will recognize her.... SO SAD
