A dog missing in California since the summer turned up more than 2,000 miles away in suburban Detroit.
Police in Harper Woods responded to a call about a stray dog last week, picked up the terrier mix and contacted an animal welfare group.
The Grosse Pointe Animal Adoption Society said it quickly discovered that the dog, named Mishka, had an identity chip implanted in her with information about her owners.
“This is a tale that Hollywood would love to tell,” the group said. Mishka had wandered away from Houman’s workplace, an auto garage, in July and never returned. Her collar had the family’s phone number.
“We think it was stolen and then it was sold and ended up in Michigan,” said Corinne Martin, director of the animal welfare group. Houman’s wife, Elizabeth, said it’s “been an incredible journey.”
