IF YOU FOUND A DOG PLEASE GET THEM SCANNED FOR A MICROCHIP 🐾
1,716 days. That's how long Sparky was missing. When he disappeared in 2020, his family put up flyers in hopes he would find his way back to them. He was found this weekend running loose in a neighborhood just FIVE minutes away from his original family's house!
Thanks to a microchip scan, we were able to get into contact with the owner's daughter, who is turning 15 and is thrilled to celebrate her quinceañera with him. When the father saw Sparky in his kennel, the lost pup appeared to recognize him and gave him the classic husky howl. The whole family is thrilled to have him home. 💙
Pet owners, please keep microchips up to date! A microchip is one of the most effective ways to reunite lost pets with their owners. We also offer chips for $25 at our East and West shelters during our business hours, no appointment required. Learn more at Maricopa.gov/Pets.
