The first one we meet is Pepper, the black lab being walked by Abby Morris. Alive. Makes a very brief appearance only to add to the books atmosphere.

Second is Roscoe, the family's dog. He disappears in the beginning and I believe he was killed by the perpetrator first so that he couldn't hinder the crime. He is never found.

Third is Tas, Wylie’s old mongrel with joint pains. The author forgets about him once he's done with as a plot device. Unbelievably horrible. Alive unless he has succumbed to old age.

Fourth is the police bloodhound Jupiter.(less)
