IndyCar star Graham Rahal and his wife, Courtney Force, are appealing for help after their two dogs, Beau and Arrow, went missing from their home.
They shared a picture of their two Alaskan Malamute dogs along with a plea for help after they escaped from their California home after a malfunction with their gate.
The two 8-year-old male dogs went missing on Tuesday night, but Rahal, 37, told TMZ he fears they may have been kidnapped.
A tracker on one of the dogs indicated they were picked up by a vehicle around 200 yards from their home.
And after showing movement from various locations, the tracker was eventually discarded in some bushes on the side of the road, but the collar was not found.
One of the dogs was not wearing a tracker due to health issues, but both are microchipped leaving them hopeful they will be notified if either ends up at a shelter.

‘Help us find our boys, Arrow and Beau,’ the couple pleaded on social media. ‘They got out of our gate and seemingly got picked up in a car, just down the street from our house.
‘However, the tracker device on his collar showed they went from Yorba Linda to Tustin then back to Brea, before just his tracker was found on the side of the road, in the bushes in Brea.’
Orange County Sheriff’s Department visited their home on Tuesday night where the family filed a police report.
Rahal has been visiting locations where the tracker stopped in a bid to track down any surveillance footage that can explain what happened.
The last shared location of the tracking device was in Brea at 9:44 p.m. on Tuesday night.
