Volunteers Needed In Search for Tessa

Author Dennis Lehane is calling on volunteers to help canvas the Brookline and Allston area with signs for their missing dog, Tessa. According to Lehane’s “Finding Tessa” Facebook page, signs have been disappearing, either by weather, the city taking them down or some other reason.  

Two meet-up groups met at the Stop and Shop in Coolidge Corner and at the McDonalds in Allston on Thursday morning. Another meet-up is scheduled for 5 p.m. tonight at the same locations. Volunteers will be provided posters, staple guns and tape.  

Tessa went missing over a week ago on Christmas Eve. Since then, the Facebook group formed to try and find the pup. Lehane has also issued an original reward; he’ll name a character in his next book after the person who finds the dog.
