Hilliard Dog - A Cleveland-area kennel owner is helping double the reward to help find a missing Hilliard dog.

A Hilliard dog boarder admits it sent the pup home with the wrong family.
The Harkins family said Sunday morning they left their black lab Jasmine in the care of Camp Bow Wow in Hilliard.
 
Monday morning, they got a phone call.
"He said that there was a mix-up," said John Harkins. "That another dog that looked exactly like Jasmine was there. And when that dog's owner came to pick up that dog, Camp Bow Wow gave them Jasmine instead."
The other dog's owner told the Harkins his step-son brought Jasmine to their home on Amity Road.
She resisted going into the stranger's house, broke free, and took off.
The news was especially tough for 17-year-old Haley Harkins.
She suffers from Williams Syndrome and calls Jasmine her sister.
Amy Ryan owns two unaffiliated Camp Bow Wow franchises in Northeast Ohio.
She was moved by Haley's story and offered to help double the reward to find Jasmine to $2,000.
She also sent workers from her locations to Hilliard to help assist in the search for the dog.
