Egypt's old rabies tag got her home!

This little doll came in to Chicago Animal Care and Control wearing a rabies tag that wasn't registered in the system for Cook County. CACC was unable to track an owner down so sent it to us at #MicrochipHunters. She had no microchip.

Being a holiday weekend in Illinois, Cook County Animal Control was closed so I wasn't able to contact them. I reached out to Jane S., and she was able to help track down the facility that the tag came from! Thank you Jane!

I contacted the animal hospital and they gave me the owner information. The phone number they gave me wasn't working, but after some research, I was able to get through to a relative who gave me Hazel's current phone number!

Hazel asked me for a picture. She said she wasn't missing a dog. When she saw her photo, she said, "that is Egypt!" She had given Egypt to a neighbor as they wanted a companion dog. She contacted the neighbor, and went to pick Egypt up for them. She will be keeping Egypt as it was best for everyone, and is delighted that she is back with her.

Egypt now has a microchip too, that Hazel will register right away!

We are so happy this little doll is home.
