Jazzy the dog reunited with owners seven years after running away

13 December 2022

Jazzy the dog has been reunited with her owners seven years after running away, a Florida animal shelter said.

She was found more than 800 miles (1,280 km) away from her home state of Texas.

Jazzy was left behind in a hotel in Florida and could barely walk when Orange County Animal Services discovered her earlier this month.

The Orlando animal shelter was shocked when they scanned Jazzy's microchip and tracked down her Texas owners.

The owners told the shelter that Jazzy had gotten spooked by fireworks seven years ago when she was five years old. The family searched for her for a long time, and "never gave up hope", the animal shelter said.

Poor baby, I am so glad she is home for the holidays. That is the best gift in the world.

Both of my doggies were chipped but if no one takes into a vet or shelter they stay "missing". So sad.
