SAN ANTONIO — Local media and sports personality Vanessa Macias and her beau, Spurs legend Tim Duncan, are frantically searching for their missing dog Izzy after it went missing Thursday.

Macias, a former TV reporter who previously competed on the reality show "The Amazing Race," began tweeting about the lost pup Thursday night.

"We need help. We've been searching for Izzy for 15 hours straight. She is microchipped, about 70 lbs, skittish," Macias posted on Thursday around 10 p.m.
