This one’s pretty unbelievable. A couple adopted a dog 9 years ago and had him microchipped, but the dog ran off soon after having the procedure. That dog made it home this week.
What happened next is the unbelievable part. The family moved from Florida, where they had adopted the dog, to New Hampshire, then to Maine, then back to Florida, and finally settled in Kentucky.
The dog, Astro, somehow made his way to a shelter in Tennessee, where they scanned him and found the chip. I can’t believe that the shelter was able to track down the family to reunite them with this beautiful German Shepherd, but thank goodness they made the effort!
You can see the whole story, as well as a video here.
Nice to hear about such a happy ending!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
My dog was lost for 2 1/2 weeks. She is a spayed pitbull/boxer mix, age 9 years. After returning home, she is a different dog. She was skin and bones when she came home with some cuts to her muzzle. She avoids the other family pets. She used to be my baby. She still follows me around the house but won’t look at me. She seems to be looking for a way out of the yard again, but comes back inside when she sees us looking after her. How can I help her acclimate back to be a member of the family again? I have been giving her lots of love and attention, but it doesn’t appear to be working. Anyone out there been through this? Please advise..
