A dog from California, which disappeared 9 months ago, was found in the American state of Michigan. She miraculously ended up more than 3,200 kilometers from home.

The story of an animal told in the Associated Press.

A female dog named Mishka lived in the city of San Diego in California. In July, her owner, Mehrad Houman, took her pet with him to work at the auto garage. However, the animal suddenly disappeared from there.

“I put up over a thousand flyers. I also always had an ad taped to the back windshield of my car. I wore her leash every time I was looking.” – said Elizabeth, Mehrad’s wife.

Last week, the police in Harper Woods, Michigan, received a call about the discovery of a stray terrier. They picked him up and contacted an animal protection group.

Zookeepers immediately noticed that the dog had an implanted identification chip with information about its owners.

The family was notified that their pet had been found while she was on her way to Minnesota. Mehrad landed in the state and then drove 10 hours to Michigan to meet Mishka.

Veterinarian Nancy Pillsbury examined the animal, gave it a rabies shot and released it home.

“She was clean, well-fed. Whoever took her, he took good care of her. How she got here, only Mishka herself knows.” – said the doctor.

According to animal rights activists, the dog was most likely stolen and then sold to someone.

“It was an incredible journey” – summed up Elizabeth Howman.

We will remind, in England saved a dog that disappeared 7 years ago and was surviving in the wild.
