SMYRNA — Pierre the performing dog was in transit to New England Monday after going missing following a Fourth of July performance in Smyrna.
The mixed breed canine was in good shape when located Saturday night after perhaps getting stolen from the Zebrini Family Circus two days earlier.
Smyrna Police spokesman Cpl. Brian Donner said it was “unknown at this time if someone just let the dog out of its kennel or they physically removed it and then brought it back to George C. Wright Memorial Park on North Main Street.”
Zebrini Family Circus spokeswoman Margaret Valencia said 3-year-old Pierre wasn’t prone to straying from his kennel, and speculated that someone may have entered a custom made, air conditioned trailer and seized the four-legged crowd pleaser around 7 p.m.
“Even if the cage is open Pierre gets out he doesn’t wander,” she said.
“There were a lot of people from the public roaming in that area and we knew right away that he hadn’t run away.
