Bring 'Zoe' Back: Oak Forest Native's Dog Stolen from Hotel Room

Can you help spread the word, and bring Zoe home?

An Oak Forest native is sick with worry over his 6-year-old Boston Terrier, who was taken from his hotel room in Arizona. 

Bob Kent, who is currently working a construction job in Tucson, left his hotel room to visit his girlfriend on a Friday night, intent on returning the next day. When his return was delayed, a coworker agreed to visit "Zoe" and take her for a walk.

But when he entered the hotel room, he found it in complete disarray—and Zoe gone. 

Kent believes a roommate's estranged friend might have taken her (along with many of his belongings), but after calling police, combing every animal shelter, and knocking on the woman's door, he's turning to social media to bring Zoe back.

“I’m sick to my stomach because i know what kind of people took her, and they don’t have a care for anything in the world. I’m disgusted.”

Anyone with information about Zoe should call Kent at 773-852-3878.
