Lost pets not uncommon at JFK - NY Times
Vivi, a 3-year-old whippet honored at this week's Westminster Kennel Club Show was the fourth animal to go missing at John F. Kennedy International Airport this month, according to New York Times.
Dozens of cats and dogs are lost and found at JFK's 5,000-acre complex every year, not all of them connected to traveling passengers. "We feel terrible about this show dog, but honestly, lost dogs are nothing new to us here," Bobbi Giordano, who runs a no-kill animal shelter in the airport's Cargo Area C, told the Times
Vivi somehow escaped from her cage on Wednesday and remains missing, though the Post says one person thinks she saw the dog Friday at a construction site near the airport.
