IndyCar driver Rahal's dogs feared stolen in California

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 21:03 · Archive

IndyCar driver Graham Rahal's two dogs went missing from his California home and may have been taken by someone in a vehicle.

IndyCar driver Graham Rahal and his wife Courtney Force are searching for their two eight-year-old male malamutes, Arrow and Beau, after the dogs went missing from their home in Yorba Linda, California. The dogs escaped from a malfunctioning gate and appear to have been picked up by a vehicle shortly afterwards, about 200 yards from the house.

A tracker on one of the dogs showed they were driven from Yorba Linda to Tustin and then to Brea before the tracking device was deliberately removed from the collar and left on the roadside. The fact that only the tracker was discarded, rather than the entire collar, suggests the dogs may have been taken intentionally.

Rahal posted a plea for help on Instagram, stating: 'Help us find our boys, Arrow and Beau. They got out of our gate and seemingly got picked up in a car, just down the street from our house.' The family has filed a police report with the Orange County Sheriff's office. Both dogs have microchips implanted, which means the family will be notified if the animals arrive at a shelter.
