Reward Offered For Missing Boston Terrier Lucas At Kemah Boardwalk
Kevin Herrington, wheelchair bound, reports his 5-year-old brindle Boston Terrier Lucas missing after a Friday night at Kemah Boardwalk. He left Lucas in his van with the side door open and a net across the opening to keep him in. Herrington asks anyone with information to contact 281-559-2000 or 713-933-4955 and is offering an unspecified reward. Lucas, nicknamed Damn Good, has been living with Herrington for about a year and is known to ride on his lap during travels. He believes someone may have taken the dog and wants him returned.
