Check Out These Reunions That Were
Sparked By July 4th Fireworks!

“HELPFUL!”

“Most times we are aware of the fireworks but this year they started early. We were able to retrieve Essense within an hour thanks to a good Samaritan…. AKC Reunite contacted me immediately by way of text and email, and it was very helpful that we were a part of this so she was quickly located. We are very thankful for AKC Reunite!”
– Stephanie, Essense the Siberian Husky’s Owner

“THANKFUL!”

“Milo ran off when a nearby neighbor set off massive fireworks… The two gentlemen who found Milo were very kind and took us to him….He is still a bit noise sensitive but is close to his old self. Our whole family is very thankful to everyone who helped us look for him, AKC Reunite, and the two guys who found him and took care of him!”
– Tony, Milo the Vizsla’s Owner

“GRATEFUL!”

“When the fireworks were over, my husband took our dogs outside. Unexpectedly, a neighbor shot off a Roman Candle and Beau, took-off… I called the local police to report him missing [and] the officer said, ‘We have him!’ As I walked to the police station, I noticed that I had text and email messages from AKC Reunite too! The system totally worked and we are so very grateful!”
– Emilie, Beau the Miniature Poodle’s Owner

“OVERWHELMING!”

“Ava was only 10 feet from me in the yard when a neighbor set off a barrage of fireworks, and Ava went into total panic mode….We searched until 3 a.m. with no sightings…[The next day], a local fire chief called and said one of his teams had Ava cornered. Once [I reached the fire station] and she figured out that I was there, and she was safe, her reaction was overwhelming!”
– Brian, Ava the German Shorthaired Pointer’s Owner

“FAMILY!”

“Phoebe went missing from our property during the fireworks on July 4th…[Three days later], AKC Reunite called and informed us that someone had found Phoebe hiding under a table and took her to have the chip scanned… Our family is very grateful for AKC Reunite and how quickly we were able to make our family whole again!”
– Miles, Phoebe the German
Shorthaired Pointer’s Owner

“COMFORT!”

“It was the scariest night of our lives, and are still in shock we found our sweet boy. AKC Reunite brought my husband and I some comfort while going through the worst pet tragedy of our lives, with our dog running away on the 4th of July. AKC Reunite promptly took our call, and expressed genuine concern. We will forever be grateful for their help!”
– Amy, Tom the French Bulldog’s Owner
