The rise and fall of a little lost puppy

Our cute little puppy Korben went for a walk on Tuesday of last week. By himself. I could say I was thrilled that he felt he should enjoy some freedom but like more pet owners, it scared me to bits. Worse, the Terrors had recently given him a bath and accidentally misplaced his collar, so he was out soloing it without his lovely tags on. :( Long story short, after visiting the pound every day, putting up lost posters, putting adds on the wonderfully helpful Pets 911 and ensuring that his microchip information was correct, we found him! At the pound and there was a wonderful sign on his cage that read Hold and Notify Owner. We had brought our paperwork for the microchip with us and viola, he was ours. It was amazing and wonderful and I am so grateful that he’s got that little piece of computer in him. :D I love my puppy.

And for all those pet owners out there, please get your animals chipped. Who knows, it could bring your missing friend home that much faster, too!

    Im glad you got your puppy back, it feels bad when you have lost something you love

    I know! :) Did I mention that I also lost my wedding band? I’ll have to tell that story in another post, I guess.

    OMG, I am so glad you got him back. As I was reading your post, my heart was beating as if I was right there with you, breaking and everything. I was hoping there was some good news at the end of the post (not like I had far to go to get to the end)and there was! Woot! Aren’t microchips awesome??!
