Is there a worse feeling in the world than having your beloved pet running away from you? You have the immediate desperate need to find your furry friend and any good pet owner will stop at nothing to be reunited. Some people will do anything to find their animals, even dress in bikinis.

Kara Pennington needed to find her lost poodle named Pierre, so instead of posting the typical lost posters on telephone poles, the young girl took it to another level. Kara and her friend donned sexy bikinis and stood outside in the rain and wind passing out fliers. The sexy marketing and a $5,000 reward got the attention and Kara received a call from a person in Tijuana who had bought her pooch for $200 in the United States. Pennington made the dangerous trek into Mexico to meet at a Tijuana police station to give the person the $5,000 reward and be reunited with Pierre. What a lucky dog.
