Whether out on the streets or in the home of some good Samaritan, Dennis Lehane’s dog, Tessa, is still missing. Lehane describes Tessa as a friendly black and tan beagle who was micro-chipped, but the tags were off when she went into the backyard in Brookline.  

As of Wednesday night, Lehane posted on his Facebook that they had followed up on many leads, but the Tessa is still out roaming the wilds of Coolidge Corner. Lehane said that anyone who helps return the dog will have a character named after them in his next book.  

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Lehane or call the Brookline Police Animal Control Officer at 617-730-2222.
