"Man is a marvelous curiosity ... he thinks he is the Creator's pet ... he even believes the Creator loves him; has a passion for him; sits up nights to admire him; yes and watch over him and keep him out of trouble. He prays to him and thinks He listens. Isn't it a quaint idea." Mark Twain

Reason for trip: Brought with Michael and Walt on the plane.
Vincent is Walt's dog. Originally, Vincent belonged to Brian, Walt's stepfather, but when Michael came to take Walt, he said that Brian was giving Vincent to Walt. Vincent has proven to be a handful. After the crash, he was spotted by Jack in the woods near the beach but runs off. In an effort to help Walt find Vincent, Locke fashions a dog whistle and used it to draw Vincent back to the beach. Later, Vincent again ran off into the woods, possibly in pursuit of a polar bear. It was during a search for Vincent after this escape that Locke and Boone happened upon the missing Claire. Vincent returned from that escape shortly before Ethan killed Scott. When Walt left the island on the raft, he left Vincent in the care of Shannon. However, Vincent also ran off from Shannon, which brought her into the jungle, where she saw Walt. Vincent is later found again, and remained under Shannon's care.In Abandoned, Vincent ran off into the woods again, and Shannon was shot. It is unclear whether or not she survives and, if she is dead, who will take care of Vincent next.
