A Happy Ending for Duncan

Last week we told you about a lost dog who wandered onto a large company's campus without identification - and we're happy to report that the story has a happy ending!

One of the company's employees had taken the dog (we now know his name is Duncan) home, while others had posted flyers, notified local vets and posted his picture on craigslist. Almost a week later, someone recognized his picture on craigslist and notified his owner who got in touch with the employee who was taking care of him.

After a stern conversation about the importance of making sure your pet has identification (preferably tags and a microchip), Duncan was released into his owner's care on Wednesday evening and everyone celebrated his safe return.

So it goes to show - if your pet does go missing and somehow loses their tags, it pays to use all means possible to try and find them - flyers, friends, networks, vets, animal control and high-traffic websites. This applies just as much to found animals - don't assume you'll never find their owners! Easy identification makes for a quick reunion but sometimes having eyes all over town is the best backup you can have.
