Great news! Biker bad boy Jesse James has found his missing pooch, Cinnabun, who disappeared from his bike shop in Long Beach nearly a month ago.
The hubby of Oscar-nominated star Sandra Bullock called in the dog-finding experts who Jessica Simpson turned to when her pooch went missing last year to help him track down his beloved Cinnabun. FindToto.com left automated messages at homes near James’ Long Beach, California compound – where Cinnabun went missing on Monday, Jan. 25 – in the hope of locating the tough guy’s dog.
In a plea for information, Jesse — who runs Cali’s West Coast Choppers — took the search for Cinnabun online, offering a $2,000 for the pit bull’s safe return. “We’ve had a few leads, but all dead ends so far, but the search is still definitely on. She’s a great little dog, and we want to find her as soon as possible,” he wrote on the company’s website last month. “Please keep your eyes out for our little gal, she’s a light brown and white pit bull, 9 months old, cropped ears, full tail, hazel eyes. Last seen wearing a large pink collar near West Coast Choppers and Cisco Burger on Anaheim St./710 Freeway in Long Beach.”
The trail turned up no trace of Cinnabun, until this week. According to PEOPLE.com, Jesse received a call from someone who had spotted Cinnabun’s picture on a flier and promptly brought the pooch in to be reunited with her family at West Coast Choppers.
“Some lady just called n said she has Cinnabun, Didnt no she was missing. Said she will bring her in 20 min. This better be real …….,” he Tweeted on Wednesday morning, before Tweeting an hour later, “Woooooo Hooooo!!!! It’s Her….A BIG thanks to Rosaura in Los Angeles who found her and brought her back,” Jesse concluded. “West Coast thanks you all, and a special thanks from Mr. T who is happy to have his little buddy back. Let the barking, wrastlin’, and bone chasing begin!””
Cinnie’s a bit thinner, but was obviously elated to be back at home.
“So Happy! Thnx Everyone for all the help! She looks like she hz had quite the Adventure!” Jesse blogged on the West Coast Choppers site this afternoon. “Maybe a few pounds thinner than when she left,” he noted. “We’re taking her to the vet to get her all checked out and chipped, and GPS’d, and live-tracked by Google Earth…the works. We don’t want to lose this little gal again!!!”
