dog found 430 miles from home
 

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. - A basset hound that disappeared from its California home in December has been found 430 miles away in Arizona. The dog, named Fred, was found by an employee Wednesday in the parking lot of the Second Chance Center for Animals in Flagstaff. The next morning, staff members with the shelter found a microchip in Fred that let them figure out he was registered at Riverside County Animal Control.The owner said Fred disappeared after she moved to Riverside in December. She didn’t know how he could have ended up in Flagstaff. Paul Fink, a veterinarian at the Flagstaff shelter and a pilot, has offered to fly the dog home to his family

Another good reason for having dogs microchipped. I found one loose on the ramp onto the highway last week, and managed to get close enough to leash it. He had a microchip tag, and the company were able to get hold of his owners before they even knew he was missing. I took it as a warning to get mine done.
