At the suggestion of pet detective Karin Goin, Vivi searchers have created a visual "lineup" to show to callers who say they have spotted the missing whippet. Search coordinator Bonnie Folz sends this followup regarding a Thanksgiving-evening call from Brooklyn:
<<[Searcher] Rosa [Chile] showed it to the woman who claimed to see Vivi on Pennsylvania Avenue and Linden Boulevard and asked her to pick out the dog she saw. The woman said that none of the dogs shown looked like what she saw and asked if there was a picture of Vivi on the sheet (which there was). Rosa then showed the woman a picture of Vivi that is used for the fliers and the woman said no, none of them were of the dog she saw. Great idea of Karin's. Wish we had it sooner. But at least it will save us checking areas, wondering if it was Vivi or not the caller saw.>>

Saturday, I had a vision of Vivi on a Ferry with this couple, and they were going across the water taking their car along too. The couple were holding hands and Vivi was leaning into them, near the woman's leg, and all were standing by the railing.
I found out that in New York area not only do people take their cars on the Ferries, they can take their dogs too. Not so where I live. Of course, and I wondered if anyone could have seen them on this Ferry. Hard to miss I would imagine.
With all the news coverage of Vivi, one would think that something would be coming in. I did sense that Sunday Vivi was being kept "under" wraps so to speak - not walking about.
These people also fry foods alot. I'm not much for frying, too greasy, but that is just what I noticed, probably because Vivi likes the kitchen smells, and who wouldn't?
I rescued, or rather I should say, the dog came when I called it, this big lovable dog that must have weighed 120 lbs, some type of yellow lab mix, and I stress the mix part, was too big for just a lab.
He was the greatest Teddy Bear Love, and usually I am not tempted to keep any dog I find/rescue, but I was tempted, I really was. But the next day I took him for an early morning walk, and sure enough saw the flier.
People keep dogs all the time, but to turn one loose again, seems so heartless. Maybe it escaped again, who knows.
How could she be kept "under wraps" and be on a ferry?
Did the people carry her onto the ferry? It doesn't make sense...........but I could be, ummm, wrong...
I had the Ferry Vision on Saturday, then on Sunday I noticed that she was not going out for walks etc. which is what I meant by being kept under wraps.
Of course, I don't know what it means, maybe these people became nervous on Sunday and weren't on Saturday while on the Ferry.
Maybe the Ferry is just a symbol for something - like Ferry St.? Hard to tell exactly.

What happened with the sighting of a man taking a whippet to work every day?
They are still working on that.
I had a vision of Vivi in a house on the beach again.
I also thought Vivi was running. Maybe a sighting came in or someone took her out to an isolated area and I thought she had a collar on too.
Then this morning, Vivi was left inside the house, and the woman went down the steps and got in her fast black car. Vivi watched her leave.
I asked Vivi where she was? Vivi doesn't know. But she likes the people well enough and is content.
I also got an e-mail from another AC that sees Vivi in a brownstone - and this makes sense to me since there are steps involved leading up to it. I sent the information to Diane Tamm which was very detailed, more so than I can post on the blog.
Also folks, I received an e-mail from a rather disgruntled blogger who had mentioned to me on the 22 of November about the Ferry Boats that travel around, and then on Sunday I had a vision of Vivi on this Ferry Boat, that was on the 26th. I went back and looked at my e-mails because I could not remember what she was talking about.
I don't believe this information influenced my vision, but one never knows for sure how the mind works. I think that Ferry, in some ways, is a strong element regardless of the e-mail on the 22. But this blogger told me to "Cut the crap" or she would post about it - so I figured it is best for me to post it in any event and be honest.
I don't want to be unduly influnced which is one reason I stopped looking at pictures of the area or talking extensively with the searchers - I do my best with little or no information and then I have at least some confidence that my visions are uncontaminated.
I really don't know what the visions mean, but it seems to make sense that the beach is an important element and water and then too now perhpas the Ferries or "Ferry".
Must correct myself - it was on Saturday I had the vision of the Ferry Boat. Sorry, at work and typing fast.
Also, some of these visions I simply don't know what element is important. Maybe the important part is that Vivi is loved and safe. Maybe it's the water or the Ferry. The pieces fall into place over time. But I certainly don't need to highjack images as I seem to do quite well using my own imagination.
Also, on Sunday the image of the beach disappeared but then returned.
Here is the e-mail the blogger sent me for all to see:
I just read your post about seeing Vivi in NJ and I remembered what you said
>about her running on the beach with the woman. Don't know if you're familiar
>with NJ but there are lots of beaches there. Some are in the southern part near
>Asbury park but there are many beaches also in the hamptons which is a very
>affluent area. That would include East and west hampton and Ammagansett. The
>hamptons also include Montauk Point. It's about a 2 1/2 hr drive from NY
>depending on traffic. Please let me know if any of this makes sense to you. When my
>husband and i used to go to the Hamptons from Rhode Island and wanted our car
>we would catch 3 ferries starting in Connecticut all of which allow you to
>drive your car on and off each one. Just thought I would mention this to you
>because when you first mentioned beaches I immediately thought of the hamptons
>but decided to email you only after you said NJ.
Folks, I have no idea the importance of the Ferry or not, but never intentionally took anything from this concerned blogger.
P.S. I will add that at one time I was receiving pictures of the area taken by a very thoughtful and ambitious searcher, and in my minds eye, I could see details of the train tracks and the stables etc., but when the photos arrived, the train tracks were not like my visions, there was too much lush greenery around, and in my visions I had dried weeds. The stables looked the same though. So, I had to stop looking at the photos as it didn't seem to help much and only added confusion.
I don't normally chat by e-mail about the area - and I do consult with one other AC by phone and e-mail who has detailed visions that seem to be quite important and add more detail to what I am getting.
Also wanted to add, that I see Vivi with a woman and at times with a couple as I think this female has a boyfriend, and my AC friend has seen Vivi with a woman and now with a man too.
I thought perhaps that this man or woman might take the Ferry (Water Taxi) to Manhatten and commutes via the water - but again I don't know the significance of anything. I let the searchers know and Diane Tamm, and have asked not to be informed, at least now, of the importance of anything.
If I do hear something, I think...I wish they hadn't told me that....
Just now I did a gleaning on Vivi - and she is pacing in the living room and looking out the windows down onto the sidewalk below.
Sedona, do you think she is in an apartment building? Is she in a city?
Maybe in a brownstone - brick. That's our thinking on this.
I believe the beach scenes are possibly a symbol for something - maybe an area.
It seems that she is in the city - but I don't know for sure - could be an old brick house someplace else. The woman drives a fast car and I wondered how fast anyone can drive in Queens - seems too crowded.
I did see Vivi this morning running and in what looked like marshlands - and I wondered if a sighting came in.
But then Vivi had a collar on, the kind with an territory range on it - so Vivi can't get lost. That's because I worry about her when I see that she is running that she will run away - but then I saw that she couldn't run away. She was with this couple.
I am really quite encouraged by this vision another AC had of where Vivi is - and she says too that it is an apartment like brownstone building.
Sedona, do you get the sense that Vivi was injured at all, some time close to the time she might have been found? I'm wondering if you get a sense that she had been injured or might have received veterinary care.
Well, this other AC thought that Vivi had suffered an injury - but not life threatening - to her legs.
She also thought that Vivi was unsure of going outside.
My images pick up on Vivi being loved and cared for but protected, very protected.
My friend the other AC, gets dreams, and very fleeting images occur.
I however, had visions when I meditate. But both of us, just get what we get when with little control over content.
I know of another animal communicator who is convinced that Vivi is with someone and has been cared for. Interesting -- that's at least three, I think. I wonder if she might have been picked up sometime after that sighting came in of Vivi limping. That would appear logical, since she would be more easy to catch or corner if she had a leg injury.
So possibly Vivi had a leg injury of some kind that made her easy to catch. Makes sense. Otherwise, I think it would be nearly impossible to get hold of her.
I had the sense of Vivi licking her front legs - but not limping.
This woman watches TV with Vivi on a couch. The woman goes to the window and waves at someone coming up the walk. The man looks up and waves and takes off his cap and smiles. Vivi gets excited and waits by the door.
I do get that Vivi is taken for rides in this black fast car by this woman - but I don't know where she takes her - Oh, I did get that the woman stopped at a store, and these kids like hip punks or something see Vivi in the car and say, Hey Lady where'd you get that dog, and they take down her license plate number as she speeds away.
And I thought the woman had stopped in a Puerto Rican Neighborhood. But I don't know why - it was their slang I suppose - and I'm not an expert on slang at all - just a guess.
Actually, I had a vision of the kids leaning into the car and admiring Vivi. And the woman yelling at them to get away from her car. She had kept the DVD on to keep Vivi company, but she locked the car.
It made the teenagers angry, and they paid attention to this woman and to Vivi.
Vivi is inside sleeping on the sofa. The wind is blowing outside and rattling tree branches. Something sweet is cooking. Vivi's is full and happy. The couple is sitting at the table talking and pouring wine and there's music playing - light jazz.
#@##*
The jazz is the sweetest music, light and happy, and fits the mood inside. And Vivi is curled in a ball licking her paws.
#@#*&%#
And when the wind blows outside, Vivi doesn't seem to notice, and she doesn't care what else is happening, she is happy and content and loved.

DOXIE UPDATE IN NJ:
Hi Everyone -
We are now down to the final two doxies looking for homes. Debra and Donna have been working hard to place these two sweethearts, but keep running into some roadblocks because these are two of the older seniors. You seniors out there know how that can feel!
Sabrina is 11-years-young, red smooth coat, unspayed female, teeth need work, heart murmur.
Briar is 9-years-young, wirehair, unspayed, teeth need work.
It is felt that Sabrina should have an Echo before any anesthesia because of she has not been on medication for who knows how long.
Both sweeties are in need of blood profiles before any surgery due to their ages and a heartworm and lyme test (Deb ran these today and they were negative). Deb may be working some free hours to pay for these babies' treatment - but she is trying to help them anyway she can.
Dr. Z has agreed to spay Briar on Thursday and do her teeth (Deb has done the blood profile to make sure this is safe for Briar).
Deb is begging the folks for help with the Echo for Sabrina (it could cost $400).
I asked her to allow me to post this on the blog for anyone who might want to help these babies. If you would like to make a Holiday donation to help these two last seniors, please send to:
Country Lakes Animal Clinic
378 Route 46
Mine Hill, NJ 07803
If you would like to help with a credit card, give Deb a call at 973-584-1836. Maybe she could take donations this way also. I am not sure.
To quote Debra Sacco:
"I don't feel right imposing on the good people on the blog to ask for money. They have been such a positive influence so far and some have already donated to us. I never feel comfortable asking for money for any circumstance, I'm just not good at it!
I can tell you it will undeniably be put to use on THESE dogs and nothing else and will be so very appreciated."
I would like to also thank all of you for your support, prayers, donations, and love for these babies.
These fur babies fell into a difficult situation that certainly was "no fault of their own." I assured Deb I felt the bloggers would not mind me posting this message for the bloggers.
I am doing this at my suggestion to Deb for these babies and take full responsibility if anyone objects. I think I know the people on this blog and their love for all animals. Thanks again.
Love Kathleen, Tinkerbell, Deb and the 11 doxies
I sure hope the blog can help these little babies and soon too.
I will try and get something more helpful in locating Vivi. I can't force things too much and I have been cautioned to limit myself to two visions a day - if I try too hard, I pick up energy that doesn't belong to Vivi and is only a distraction. When I get a vision I see only a few seconds of what is happening at a time, and that is why I try more often to see what if anything changes.
Maybe it is a hopeful sign that they are still working on the report of a man taking a dog to work every day that looks like Vivi.
They ruled out the Brooklyn sighting by showing the line-up card. If this other person has been shown the line-up card and they are still working on it maybe that is a good sign??
Yes It sounds like a very good sign...keep hoping
Psalm 96
God of the Universe
Sing to the LORD a new song;
sing to the LORD, all the earth.
Sing to the LORD, bless his name;
announce his salvation day after day.
Tell God's glory among the nations;
among all peoples, God's marvelous deeds.
For great is the LORD and highly to be praised,
to be feared above all gods.
For the gods of the nations all do nothing,
but the LORD made the heavens.
Splendor and power go before him;
power and grandeur are in his holy place.
Give to the LORD, you families of nations,
give to the LORD glory and might;
give to the LORD the glory due his name!
Bring gifts and enter his courts;
bow down to the LORD, splendid in holiness.
Tremble before God, all the earth;
say among the nations: The LORD is king.
The world will surely stand fast, never to be moved.
God rules the peoples with fairness.
Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice;
let the sea and what fills it resound;
let the plains be joyful and all that is in them.
Then let all the trees of the forest rejoice
before the LORD who comes,
who comes to govern the earth,
To govern the world with justice
and the peoples with faithfulness.

"A kind word is the oil that takes the friction out of life." Rexella Van Impe
I see "hb" has the usual words of wisdom to offer.
Last night around 10:00 pm California time, I thought that Vivi in a vehicle and going back to the house where she was for Thanksgiving.
Vivi is in a small room with the door closed. She has her pillow/bed and her pony stuffed animal and is checked on often.
She was not put in the sports car; she went in a larger vehicle, like a truck or larger SUV, and she was put in a cage or crate of some type that jiggled. Vivi gets stressed when she has to travel in a crate, but today she is fine. She smells cooking under the crack of the door - I do believe she is in the back of the house.
I also see Sedoner has her words of, ummmmm, wisdom to offer..haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I wonder if some good tips haven't come in and are being kept quiet. Just seems that if Vivi is out there, we'd be hearing more - at least some news of good sightings or something.
We are so lucky to live in America where people care about being kind and care about the correct and right treatment of animals and other living breathing creatures. I think that even in our darkest hours, the light of God's love shines through and comforts.
Sedona, I don't believe Vivi is still out there, which would explain why there aren't going to be any more "confirmed" or "credible" sightings of her.
Beth,
Some of the searchers talk as if she is, but I too believe if she is free roaming, we'd have some better sightings.
Well it seems that someone should see her someplace though. If she is caught, how careful can someone be with a dog - I guess that depends uh, on their determination.
I see Ruby still is having trouble typing.
Not worth commenting on. Consider the source.
With the extensive news and media coverage, if Vivi was on the streets, a good sighting would come in, one would think, at least one good sighting of her on the streets or seen around the parks, like before.
It just leads me to believe that she is in fact caught, even if that is somewhat of an unpopular view.
OK, wait, I thought that the most likely favorable scenario, according to Karen Goin, was that Vivi WAS with someone. Is that not a popular, generally accepted viewpoint? I know people are still putting up posters, but I assumed that was primarily in case anyone saw Vivi being walked, or recognized her as the neighbors' "new" dog, or whatever. Am I wrong about that? Is it the popular, generally-accepted view that she's still wandering the streets, cemeteries, and parks?
Vivi's article from 11/24 is on the front page of www.cnn.com
On the bottom right. Apparently it is "Offbeat News!"
I don't know exactly - I just go by how must objection I get on the blog when I say that Vivi is caught - and think it is not a popular idea.
And with the New York Times article and CNN Offbeat News, etc. plus the local coverage, the person or persons that have Vivi and are hiding her must be very selfish people to continue keeping her to themselves.
I have heard from a few searchers that they believe Vivi is free roaming around because they have nothing else to confirm otherwise. Lack of sightings don't seem to matter, and that is my opinion. To get the real scoop, the searchers individually will need to be asked.
Tucson, It seems to ME and this is only my opinion is that Harry and Karins conclusions were not that different. Anyone can read into them anyway they like, but it's not so far fetched that someone may have her for WHATEVER reason. I still feel that untill there is a confirmed sighting that this is more likely to be true. Unfortenately, we were told there was some kind of "ON going investigatioin" that we were never updated on, So who knows anymore?
It's been 3mnts now, and NO RESULTS OF AN INVESTIGATION So again we have pretty much been left to draw our own conclusion untill something breaks.
I just pray that if anyone who might have Vivi that knows who she is, will one day put all our worried minds and hearts at ease.
VIVA LA VIVI!!!
I agree Rosa. We DO NOT know anything for certain, so we must to continue to approach the search from a "someone may have her" or "she is still out in the wild" and pray the third alternative has not happened.
Since no sightings, I tend to think someone may have her myself. JMO, I have no evidence to prove anything - sure wish I did.
Tucson: re: your comment about "popular generally accepted veiw point" NO that subject alway's seems to cause alot of Heated conversations, but thats the good thing about the blog, WE have all agreed to disagree, sometimes. LOL! "VIVI LA VIVI"
I too hope that some day all of our worried minds will be put at ease.
And, whether right or wrong, I still have visions of her being caught - so I just go with that. I have no evidence of anything except, of course, that it seems she is probably more caught than not.
And I think too that this person must know she/he has Vivi - otherwise, we'd have just normal sightings of this person taking Vivi to the Vet, to the pet store, on walks, etc. Just normal sightings of Vivi about and around, and I haven't heard of any and none have been posted, so I think we haven't received them...but then again, I just wait for news on the blog like most of us do.
And I wonder how long a person or persons can successfully conceal Vivi. At some time, they will need to go on a vacation or will need to kennel her or leave her with friends. And eventually people brag or talk and then too the reward is still being offered.
New sighting post by Bonnie just put up!
I did have a new sighting coming in - but I still had Vivi with this couple - so if this is Vivi, then we need to find her before winter.
This is a bitter sweet sighting for me. I want her safe and captured and not on the streets during winter. The poor little girl, but I am so very pleased that we know she is alive and have an area to focus our search on.
I just don't understand how she can go for three months without one good sighting. She must be Houdini.
Mabye this is all good news and I have been seeing the future - a future where Vivi is safe and loved with this blond woman and her man and being protected and loved by Rick and Jill.
