Kennedy Airport after escaping from her travel crate about a month ago as she was being loaded onto a Delta Airlines flight to California, recently visited a garage in Flushing, according to a Long Island woman who joined a search party looking for the dog last weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Darlene O&#8217;Sullivan, of Inwood, looked for Vivi Saturday and Sunday along with one of the dog&#8217;s owners and two $1,000-a-day search dogs named Cade and Boone. On a tip, O&#8217;Sullivan said the dogs picked up Vivi&#8217;s scent near Baisley Pond Park in South Jamaica, before losing it. Then, a woman called the search party to report that she had spotted Vivi in Flushing, near the 196th Street block on 46th Avenue.<\/p>\n<p>Cade and Boone picked up the scent, which was much stronger than it had been in South Jamaica, O&#8217;Sullivan said, and searched for several blocks in that area of Flushing as volunteers plastered the area with fliers. Vivi, though, remained elusive.<\/p>\n<p>The search party returned to Flushing Sunday morning, O&#8217;Sullivan said, and Cade and Boone once again picked up Vivi&#8217;s scent, this time focusing on 193rd Street between 46th and 44th avenues. Eventually, Cade hit on the smell and went right to a house in the area. O&#8217;Sullivan said the house&#8217;s owner reported that his dog had been barking the previous night, leading volunteers to believe Vivi had visited the area and possibly the house&#8217;s garage and that they were only one day behind the Whippet.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I get the sense at this point that Vivi may not actually want to go back to its owner.
