neighboring one, and shortly before leaving, the pet was lost.After three long years, an elderly dog lost back in 2017 is back home to her loving familyHurricane Harvey buried the last hope of finding a four-legged friend, causing significant

damage to local infrastructure.Maddy had a microchip with basic data, but they couldn’t update it. The last hope was the Lost Dogs of Texas Facebook page.When one of the volunteers discovered the little fugitive in early 2021, the data from

the chip turned out to be useless, but their comparison with the information on the site yielded results.Thanks to a special program, the family was found literally in a day!They never forgot Maddie, didn’t replace her with other pets,

continuing to search.And when the fluffy was returned, they immediately surrounded her with affection and care.The old dog has finally returned home. And as if there were no four years

of separation: general attention, hugs, love.No one wants to lose loved ones, but it is this experience that allows you to feel the value of relationships.
