UPDATE: It's with a heavy heart that we share that this wasn't the happy ending that we were hoping for. Ozzie was found yesterday afternoon and is now in heaven.

We got a message on the WBKR Facebook page from Tabitha Gibson. Her little Yorkie, Ozzie, has been missing since last Wednesday.

Ozzie is 13 years old and got out of the house on October 21st at 7PM. He is approximately seven pounds and is completely deaf.

Additionally, his sight isn't very good, either. Tabitha says he can only see very little in broad daylight and that he is wearing a green harness that has little diamonds on it. Ozzie also has a gray flea and tick collar around his neck.

Ozzie escaped out the door of their house which is on Pleasant Valley Road in the Philpot/Knottsville area.

The Gibson family is offering a $500 reward for the return of Ozzie. Again, he's a gray and silver Yorkie.

If you find Ozzie or know of his whereabouts, please call the Gibson family at 270-570-3471.
