Minnie has been missing since Sunday.

Her owner told ABC7 that the 7-year-old mixed breed dog was dropped off at the PUPS Pet Club in River North.

The canine was then taken to the club's boarding site in the South Loop near Michigan and 13th Street.

That is where she apparently got out of her crate, opened a door, and escaped into the lobby of an adjacent building before heading outside.
