2016 Z51 Corvette offered as a reward for dog that went missing in Sept 2021. That's wanting your dog back really bad, but, likely far too long after the dog went missing. If the Vette had been offered up while the dog was still likely to be alive, the chances would have been far greater of success

the Kirchner family of Atlanta Ga have been looking for their 4-year-old Whippet mix, since September 2021 after she ran off during the family’s vacation in Hilton Head, SC. 

The Kirchners have spent every day of the last five months trying to bring Marley home. They’ve set up a Facebook page for her, made signs for cars and bikes, and even set up trail cameras. 

But after five months of rigorous searching, the Kirchners are running low on money and hope. So as a last-ditch effort to spark some incentive to have Marley returned, they are putting up a $4,000 cash reward and the title to Derek’s 2016 Corvette Stingray.

I think if they had sold the car, and offered the money it sells for as a cash reward, they would have much better chance of getting people actively interested in looking for the dog, just to get the 50 thousand dollars, or 60, whatever it's worth. 

I bet private investigators, the unemployed, even local kids, would get out and look for the dog for 50 k in cash
