About how smart dogs find their way home, we have repeatedly seen in films. But the Sessi's Pomeranian could well compete with the characters of feature films.
When Sessi disappeared from his hosts in Bradenton, Florida, he was already 6 years old. Saddened owners unsuccessfully searched for their favorite, putting up ads on every corner. But Sessi as if through the ground has failed.
Five months later, the police found a dog on the road. About it on the page in Facebook reports the local police department of the city of Pembroke Pines.
Thanks to the microchip, the police were able to locate the dog and its owners. Moreover, in the process it turned out that in five months the intelligent dog was able to cover almost 320 kilometers.
Since that time, the animal has not suffered.
Sessi managed to get home thanks to a microchip, which contained information about the owners of the dog. Police officers stressed the importance of such devices that help return lost animals to their owners.
“We would like to take this opportunity to highlight the importance of microchips and ask them to use them for your pets. If your animal is lost, we can always keep track of the information about the owners and return the animal safe and sound. Our animal care program regularly takes on local lost dogs, which often remain unclaimed due to a lack of owner identification.
Please ask your veterinarian to microchip your cat or dog. This small procedure will be able to save your beloved animal, and you will be able to save you from pain in the heart, "- written on the page Facebook.
The Pembroke Pines Police Department urges all police and sheriff departments to implement their own animal assistance program in order to better serve the members of their communities. With such a program, law enforcement can prevent the loss of many pets.
By law, those animals for which they could not find the former or new owners are euthanized. Over the past 5 years, thanks to a special program for lost animals, 1300 dogs and cats have been saved. Therefore, the Pembroke Pines Police Department hopes that their success will inspire others to follow their example.
In addition, the page published a recommendation from the Pembroke Pines Police Department about how a holiday firework in honor of Independence Day can scare your pets.
