Karen Kissner is one person that has this attitude of never giving hope that she would reunite with her toy poodle Zoey who ran away from her home in Hugo Minnesota in August 2018.
Despite Karen's friends telling her that she should give up her dream of reuniting with her toy poodle again, Karen used the power of social media and placing flyers in her hometown in hopes that someone would return her dog.
Karen received some great news last week thanks to a volunteer search team named The Retrievers who informed her that her dog was picked by a stranger in Hinckley who took her dog to the Woodbury Humane Society where officials found out that Zoey had been found thanks to a microchip that one stranger placed on her but failed to register her numbers.
Karen then traveled to Hinckley to reunite with her pet who had lost weight and suffered an ear infection.
Karen has promised to keep a sharp lookout on her toy poodle from now on.
Reunited and it feels so good after nearly 18 months of being apart. What a nice reunion story.

It is so important to have our pets microchipped! Luna has never been out by herself and she would get lost easily, I guess.

That is a good idea to microchip my pets so that they can found easy if they get lost.

That is true since the toy poodle was lucky that a stranger found her on the road and took her to a shelter where she was reunited with her owner.

Karen is promising to herself that she will be more careful dealing with her dog in the future since by the Grace of God, they were reunited after 17 months apart.

It is a wonderful story of a dog reuniting with her owner after over one year being apart.

It is a terrible ordeal for a dog not to have proper housing for a long period of time.
