Dog Missing for Over Two Years Reunited with Owners Thanks to Microchip

An animal-loving couple and their beloved dog are back together again after more than two years apart.

Two weeks ago, Madrigal and Figueroa received a call at their new home in Omaha, Nebraska, notifying them that Max had been found.

“I honestly thought it was a cruel joke. I honestly did,” Madrigal said.

Fortunately,Max is microchipped, which helped those who found him identify his owners, along with Madrigal and Figueroa’s updated contact information on theAmerican Kennel Clubwebsite.

“Always microchip your animals. We are living proof,” Madrigal said of being reunited with Max again.

Max was found only five minutes away from his owners' old home in El Paso.

On Monday, Max arrived in Omaha with his family and will be spending the holidays with them once again this year.
