A woman in Manhattan, New York, is frantically searching for her dog, who was lost when a hired dog walked fainted. According to the New York Post, Meredith McNaughton’s Shih Tzu/Maltese mix, Lily, disappeared on December 23 in the Canarsie neighborhood of Brooklyn.

McNaughton is hopeful that someone has picked up her dog and that she is safe. She told the Post, “Our gut instinct is that someone has her. We are hoping that they return her.”

On Sunday, McNaughton posted another flier on a Facebook group announcing that Lily has not been found, and asking for people to be on the lookout:

Hi NYC People, LILY IS STILL MISSING. Our dog walker lost her in Brooklyn before Christmas and we miss her so much. We think someone is keeping her as their own pup and need help spotting her. Please be on the lookout and text a photo and any info if you think you see her!

A $3,500 reward is offered for Lily’s safe return. The dog is microchipped, has an under bite, and weighs 9 pounds.

Anyone who has spotted Lily is asked to reach out to her owner and let her know. According to the lost Dog Flier, the email address to use is: [email protected].
