Yes, They’re Still Looking For That Dog

And you thought the idea of having psychics help find Vivi was wacky. How wrong you were:

The award-winning show dog that went missing from JFK Airport last month is on a boat to France, wearing a little hat, according to one of 33 dog psychics working on the case.

But Vivi’s co-owner, who flew in from California to assist with the ongoing search, believes the pooch, a female whippet whose full name is Champion Bohem C’est La Vie, is surviving on her own, using her hunting skills to eat.

“She’s the opposite of a coach potato,” said Paul Lepiane, who normally has the dog on weekends. “She spends her days hunting on a farm. She’s already lived that life.”

Lepiane said most of the psychics have given overlapping information as to Vivi’s whereabouts. The dog escaped a travel cage Feb. 15 along a JFK runway after being in the Westminster Kennel Club dog show in Manhattan.

“The good news is that the psychics are all saying that she’s still alive,” he said Friday. “There all getting these messages from Vivi, so that gives us hope.”

But Lepiane said the psychics’ descriptions are too vague.

“They’ll say she’s hiding behind a stack of boxes and there’s some maintenance vehicles around. Well, at JFK there’s 500 buildings that fit that description,” he said.

For now, volunteers regularly comb the neighborhoods near the airport, handing out flyers and whistling for Vivi.

“There’s tons of rabbits at JFK,” Lepiane said. “We know she can hunt and find rabbits to eat and go inside somewhere and hide. Now she just has to let herself be seen.”
