Little Rock, Arkansas – A Texas family has been reunited with their dog, who disappeared two years ago. According to the Friends of the Animal Village, the amazing reunion was made possible thanks to the dog’s implanted microchip.
According to the non-profit agency, the dog, named Jill, was scanned for a microchip and the information led to her family, who is living in Texas. In a Facebook post, the organization said:
This family just drove all the way from Texas to be reunited with their beloved Jill at the Little Rock Animal Village. Jill went missing TWO YEARS AGO. This reunion would not have happened had she not been microchipped. They were overjoyed when they got the phone call yesterday afternoon.
