Santo Battaglia is looking for help in finding his lost Great Dane puppy.

The Great Dane puppy is a 7-month-old female named Josie. She is wearing a new bright-orange collar with a tag. She is brown in color with a black muzzle, and she has white markings on her paws. Josie weighs about 40 to 50 pounds.

The puppy has a gentle demeanor, Battaglia said.
