Lost Dog in Kennesaw, GA: Poppy Havanese

UPDATE: (October 6, 2011) This morning we received the worst kind of news. After four days of searching for Poppy in every way possible, our sweet pal was fatally hit by a car on Barrett Pkwy, about two miles from the home she was visiting. We are devastated for Poppy's parents and send our deepest sympathies, for Poppy truly was part of the family. Thanks to all our wonderful friends for the support and help in trying to find Poppy. RIP sweet Poppy, you will be missed.

Thankfully we've never had to do a lost dog post and it's not what we typically do. But Cosmo's sweet Havanese pal Poppy has been on the loose since Sunday, Oct. 2. We're doing all we can to spread the word so that someone will help spot Poppy and bring her home.
