Point Boro Family Offers $500 for Safe Return of Missing Dog

The Hill family of Mattapan Avenue is offering a $500 reward for the safe return of their missing dog, who disappeared late Friday night.

Melanie Hill said the family let Xhaiden (pronounced Zayden) out at about 10:30 p.m. on Friday and within minutes the dog disappeared. The last reported sighting was around 11 p.m. on Northstream Parkway, across Bridge Avenue from where the family lives, she said.

Xhaiden is a dark, chocolate brown spaniel male and weighs about 45 pounds.

Xhaiden, who is five years old and whom they raised from a puppy, is very friendly and answers to his name, Hill said.
