Celebrity Intervention Spikes Search for Lost Dog, Owner Still Held Out Hope.
A woman's search for her missing dog was unexpectedly amplified by a celebrity after she shared his story on social media. Ashley Padon has been searching for Kikko, her toy Australian shepherd, since he went missing in July.
The initial search efforts involved Padon putting up flyers, contacting shelters and veterinary offices, knocking on doors, and creating social media accounts to spread the word about Kikko's disappearance. Although she had offered a reward of $5,000 for his safe return, her story was recently reposted by Golden Globe-nominated actress Amanda Seyfried.
In a recent TikTok video posted from Padon's account, @kikkothetoyaussie, she expressed her shock and gratitude towards Seyfried for sharing Kikko's story. The owner claimed that the actress had initially offered to triple her initial reward of $5,000 but later added another significant increase to $15,000.
Despite the support from a celebrity, Padon still has no updates or leads on Kikko. She recently spoke with 15 psychics and animal communicators who told her she was alive, leaving her hopeful that he would be found safely.
