18 years old. Missing for a month. And finally going home.
Meet Darwin. This little senior boy was found and brought to the Anti-Cruelty Society, who then transferred him to Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC) for his stray hold. Darwin had a microchip, but unfortunately the phone number registered to the chip was disconnected, a situation Microchip Hunters see far too often. That’s when Microchip Hunters stepped in, receiving the case from CACC. Using the chip information, Microchip Hunters began tracing additional leads to try to locate Darwin’s family. Microchip Hunter Amy D. was able to reach someone connected to the family. They confirmed they did want their dog back, but they spoke very little English. A younger girl got on the line and explained that Darwin had been missing for about a month. To help bridge the language barrier, Microchip Hunter Carmen, who speaks Spanish, called the owner to make sure they received the text with instructions on how to reclaim Darwin from CACC. Because of that call, Darwin’s family was able to get there and bring their 18-year-old boy home. Thank you to the person that took Darwin in for help getting home, and to ACS and CACC for their steps in this process! After a month missing, this senior dog finally gets to sleep in his own home again. This is exactly why Microchip Hunters works every lead, even when a chip seems like a dead end. #MicrochipHunters www.microchiphelp.com Lost Dogs Illinois
