Beagle 'Pete' stolen from MSPCA adoption center in Methuen

By Globe Staff

The MSPCA reported Friday that a a five-year-old Beagle named “Pete” was stolen from the organization’s Nevins Farm Adoption Center in Methuen Thursday, minutes before his new adopter was to take him home.

According to MSPCA spokesman Rob Halpin, Pete was taken sometime between 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. Halpin said the dog is mostly white, black, and brown and was last seen wearing a red collar.

The MSPCA has alerted the Methuen Police Department and will engage Granite State Dog Recovery, a volunteer group that uses high-tech equipment and expert search teams to locate lost or stolen animals.

Halpin said Pete has a microchip tracking device and Mike Keiley, MSPCA-Nevins farm director, has reported him stolen to Home Again, the company that manages Pete’s microchip. The MSPCA will be notified if Pete’s microchip is scanned by a veterinarian or an animal control officer.

There are no leads at this point and the MSPCA is asking for the public’s help in finding Pete. The MSPCA does not plan to press charges – the person who has him can bring him back no questions asked, so long as he is safe an unharmed, Halpin said.

Anyone with information is asked to e-mail Keiley direction at mkeiley@mspca.org.

The Saint Michael School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) in North Andover has teamed up with Heartwood Kitchens in Danvers to host a unique kitchen tour fundraiser featuring "The Ultimate Dinner Party" as the theme.

The self-guided tour will be held on Saturday April 6 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at six different homes in North Andover. Advance tickets are going for $25. Tickets bought the day of the event will be sold for $35.

Each attendee will receive a map with a list of all six homes, and a recommended starting point. Each of the six kitchens will be arranged as a dinner party and two of the homes will feature tastings, one entailing chicken marsala and one with pastries.

Upon arriving at each home, local sponsors including Andover vendors like Les Fleurs, Savoir Faire Home, Dinner by Dish, Fisichelli's Pastry Shop and Wine Sense, as well as North Andover vendors Rose & Dove, McClay's Florist and Ethan Allen, will give attendees tips and techniques on hosting the ultimate dinner party.

In addition to the tour, there will be a raffle prize for a chance to host a $300 "Ultimate Dinner Party" at The LANAM Club in Andover, as well as a raffle for a kitchen design worth $1,500.

All proceeds from the tour will benefit Saint Michael School PTO. The money the PTO raises goes toward supporting the capital needs of the school, funding the school buses for field trips and providing money for each teacher's needs for their classrooms. The goal is to enhance the children's experience.
