After their family dog, Cleo, ran away 10 years ago Luisa and her family didn't think they would ever see her again. But recently the dog was dropped off at the Tampa Humane Society and her microchip was scanned leading to the family being reunited with their 14-year-old dog.
When [a] 14-year-old Cockapoo showed up at HSTB as a stray we were hoping for a happy ending and for her to be reunited with her owners but we did not foresee the joy that her story brought! Her microchip led the team to Luisa who was in disbelief when we called, because Cleo (as we learned was her name), had run away TEN YEARS AGO!
And I thought a Cockapoo was a type of bird!
When the dog ran away from home a decade ago, the family lived in Tampa, but since then have moved to Miami. Thankfully they kept Cleo's microchip information up-to-date even after their move so that they were able to be located by the Humane Society.
The family made the trip from Miami to Tampa to pick up their long-lost pet earlier this week, and are overjoyed to finally be reunited!
