Welcome to Philly.
I listened to the podcast linked in the article, and my understanding of the timeline is:
- The owner originally had two dogs. Both disappeared from her backyard one day. One dog returned home. The other vanished without a trace.
- Eleven years later, a random girl found the missing dog outside. She befriended the dog and brought him home. She talked with her parents and contacted ACCT Philly, who in turn found the original owner through a microchip.
Does this make sense? To me, this story managed to be a rare mix of heartwarming, insightful and frustrating.
