STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 A Tottenville family is desperately searching for its young dog, which went missing on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Natalie Kenul, 42, is seeking the public\u2019s assistance in locating Coco, an 11-month-old chocolate Shih Tzu.<\/p>\n
Coco was last seen in the vicinity of Craig and Lee avenues in Tottenville on Tuesday morning. The dog was being watched by a friend when she somehow escaped the house, Kenul said.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy daughters don\u2019t know she\u2019s missing,\u201d Kenul told the Advance\/SILive.com. \u201cI told them Coco is at doggy camp because I know how devastating the truth would be. This has been heartbreaking for me, and I\u2019m doing everything I possibly can to bring her home. I have left no stone unturned.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite flyers and search efforts, as of Friday night, Kenul has not had anyone come forth with a confirmed sighting.<\/p>\n
Coco responds to her name and is friendly, Kenul said. However, as she could be scared, anyone who spots her should approach gently and not chase, she said.<\/p>\n
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Kenul by calling (917) 831-6446.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s not just our dog, she\u2019s family,\u201d added Kenul. \u201cI won\u2019t rest until she\u2019s back home where she belongs.\u201d<\/p>\n
