Back in November, Chesty, a terrier/beagle mix, got loose from the O'Donnell's yard in the Bristol and Mearns road area. Initally, readers reported sightings of Chesty and signs were plastered all about the neighborood, but the chatter has mostly died down. However, the O'Donnell family is still hopeful for a happy ending. A $100 reward, no questions asked, has been offered for information leading to Chesty's safe return. If you have any information about Chesty, contact the O'Donnells at (215) 672-1296.

A missing toy poodle was found yesterday by a local family after seeing an announcement posted on Warminster Patch.
A family has been reunited with a beloved pet after an alert Warminster Patch reader saw the dog wondering in the woods near her house. The toy poodle, Ketzie, went missing on Friday, Dec. 21, last seen in the Hampton Road section of Warminster.

The O'Donnell family has been looking for Chesty, a rat terrier/beagle mix, since Nov. 16, when he got loose in the Mearns/Bristol neighborhood.
It's been two-and-a-half weeks since Chesty got loose from the O'Donnell's backyard, and the Warminster family sorely misses their beloved dog. "I call for him every night," said John O'Donnell. "We've got two other dogs, a 7-year-old rat terrier and a chug, a chihuahua/pug mix. They want him back home." The public was first made aware that Chesty, a rat terrier/beagle mix, had gone missing from a blog posted by Mary Alice Brancato on Nov. 19. Readers voiced their support to the family in the comments, and a few claimed to catch a glimpse of Chesty in a few different spots. The tips did not result in the return of Chesty, unfortunately. O'Donnell has also sent out notices through his various e-mail networks, posted a message on Craigslist…
