The young pup slipped through her harness and ran through the trails after a bicyclist scared her, according to the family.

The puppy’s family has been looking for her along with concerned hikers, rescue volunteers and park officials. Nellie’s heartbroken family has been distributing flyers in hopes of finding their beloved pup.

Nellie was adopted Aug. 14 from Shultz’s Guest House in Dedham, Massachusetts.
