In 2007, Dutchess went missing. Now, 12 years later, someone found her under a shed and over 1,000 miles away from home!
Dutchess, at the time, was just a 2-year-old puppy who wandered away from home and never found her way back. Her owner never forgot about her puppy but had to go on with life. Until out of the blue, she got a call that stopped her in her tracks.


It was the Humane Aminal Rescue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The lost dog was found hungry and shivering, under a shed in Carnegie, Pennsylvania. She was then brought to the Humane Society where they checked her for a chip, three days later, hse was reunited with her owner!


After driving over 18 hours, she cries as sheโs reunited with her pet, she canโt believe itโs even happening.

The dog that sat on her lap was no longer a puppy, but a 14-year-old dog. She had no idea how the poor thing got all the way to Pennsylvania, or how she survived for all these years.


โI canโt believe youโre calling me right now, I canโt believe this is happening.โ Said, Kathryn.
The owner was ecstatic to have her pet back, she could hardly contain her emotions as they reunited.
