Lucy, beloved emotional support dog lost in NYC subway tunnels, found safe

Lucy, once a rescue pup and now an emotional support dog for an elderly Battery Park City woman, spent a day on the lam after escaping from her Manhattan apartment and racing into a subway station Saturday.

“She definitely has some abuse in her life and is nervous about new people. She’ll be hard to catch,” said a shaken Molly Malone. “She’s been through a lot of things, including the pandemic, when she was my mom’s only companion. She’s the sweetest little thing.” Susan Malone, 76, Lucy’s owner, has been hospitalized since last week with a broken arm and leg.
