Paco wasn't the only dog lost in transit before it was loaded onto a Delta aircraft. Four years ago, Vivi, a whippet who won the Award of Merit in the Westimnster Kennel Club Dog show, escaped from her kennel as it was being loaded onto a Delta flight and was reportedly seen running across the tarmac before escaping into the marshy marsh. A media frenzy ensued....
...and a 100-volunteer hunt, complete with helicopter patrol. Flyers were distributed in seven different language and at one point 34 pet psychics were on the case. Vivi was never found and Delta paid the owners $2,800, though the dog's value was estimated to be $20,000. But according to the psychics, you should shed no tears. They say Vivi is fine and happy, living in Brooklyn.

My favorite part of the article is the great description of the marsh as "marshy".
If psychics are so good why haven't they won the lottery.
Sounds like Delta got a deal, and I am sure the owners collected a sum of insurance money. It's a win-win!
If the psychics know she is in Brooklyn why don't they go find her?
can someone tell me what loonies would ever value a dog at $20,000. Unless it's one of those bomb sniffing dogs, or the military/police K9, or one of those attack dogs that shoot killer bees out of their mouths when they bark.
