Chen was running down a busy street -- by Jen in Jacksonville, FL
My husband had accidentally left our front door open and I didn't notice that our Shih Tzu-Poodle mix, Chen, was missing for probably ten minutes. After panicking and calling for her on our street, I realized she was nowhere near and jumped in the car. I was terrified I'd find her injured or dead since there is a lot of traffic near our home.

Thankfully, after another ten minutes of fruitless searching, I received a call from HomeAgain -- they were connecting me with a man who had found her running down the middle of a busy street.

I met John and thanked him profusely. John said he also used a pet recovery service for his two dogs and that it had helped him in the past. I am so glad that I started the HomeAgain service and have been renewing. It only takes one time for it to be completely worth it!

Our partner, HomeAgain, recently celebrated its one-millionth lost-pet reunion and we're thrilled! Watch a video HomeAgain's celebratory reunion story above, then check out HomeAgain's celebration website.

Chewy was missing for two years
Anita Baumgardner and her family lost their Peekapoo of seven years, Chewie, in 2010 from their home in Arizona. As a military family, the Baumgardners move frequently -- one of the few consistencies for their three children is their pets.

Chewie was found two years later on the highway by a good Samaritan, who took him to a vet to be scanned for a microchip. Because the contact information on file with HomeAgain along with Chewie's microchip number was up-to-date, the family (now in California), could be reunited with their beloved pet!

Another family tried to keep the lost Pit Bull -- from Ashley N. in Austin, TX
My dog's name is Blew. My husband and I lost him at a shopping center. He jumped out of the car and he went missing for 11 days. My husband and I put up posters and put ads on websites. Of course, he also had his microchip.

On the eleventh day, the people who found him tried to take him to a vet ... and get him checked as their dog. The vet had the alert from HomeAgain and, when they scanned Blew, it showed that we had reported him missing. The couple could not take him and Animal Control was called. We were contacted and asked to pick Blew up at the animal shelter.

I was so happy and relieved that we found our Blew thanks to HomeAgain! We missed him dearly and just want to thank you and say how appreciative we are that the microchip helped bring him home.

Animal control thought Leo was a feral cat -- from Jennifer in Dixon, CA
Leo had been missing for 10 days when I got a call from the local animal control saying they had him there.

When I got there I found out someone had trapped him and thought he was a feral cat. Animal control deemed him untouchable so they did not scan him for a microchip. So he sat there in a feral cat trap for seven days.

After the seven-day holding period, they took him out to euthanize him but are required to scan all pets before doing so. Thank goodness! The first words the animal control officer said to me were, "You know that microchip saved your cat's life."

Thank you, HomeAgain. Without you I may have never seen my beloved Leo again.

HomeAgain recommended we post its free lost-pet fliers -- from Angela in Sanford, FL
We called HomeAgain this morning around 11 a.m. reporting our dog missing. They advised us that even though Maverick is microchipped, we should go around the neighborhood and put up posters. Fifteen minutes later, we received the posters from them and immediately went around hanging them up.

Well, Maverick was brought home tonight at 8 p.m. I just want to say a very big THANK YOU to HomeAgain. I will definitely recommend this company to anyone I know who is a pet parent. Thank you for bringing home my baby!

Romeo disappeared two days after he was adopted -- from Coleen C. in Union, NJ
My rescue dog, Romeo, a Pug/Dachshund mix, is a senior who'd been at a shelter for months. The second day he was home with me, he somehow escaped. I've had several dogs over 10 years, in the same house, with the same fenced-in backyard, and none ever disappeared before.

I panicked, knowing he didn't know the area, so he'd never find his way home.

Pinto was stolen -- from Marrissa in Palmdale, CA
My mom works for High Desert Animal Care Hospital in Palmdale, CA. She had my dog [Pinto] microchipped by HomeAgain.

Someone stole Pinto over 2 years ago. I cried day and night. I eventually gave up hope in finding her.

On April 22, I got a weird number on my phone. They left a message, and it was HomeAgain! Apparently, a very nice lady by the name of Jewel in Playa Del Rey found my 2.5-lb Chihuahua and did the right thing by taking her to a vet to be scanned!

We drove over a 100 miles at 7 p.m. and got her. She didn't remember me at first, but then she did. I love her!

Thank you HomeAgain, Jewel, & High Desert Animal Care Hospital!

Tommy slipped out -- from Virginia in San Diego

Tommy slipped out unnoticed on March 21. We posted signs all over our neighborhood and at a couple of local vet hospitals and businesses. We checked the animal shelter a few times per week. But months passed and no sign of him.

We received a call from Tierrasanta Veterinary Hospital this afternoon, stating that Tommy had been brought in for treatment to a wound on his leg. The man who brought him in said he had found him about two months ago. Since Tommy was a found cat, the vet scanned him for a microchip and immediately called HomeAgain to get our contact information.

We are so happy to be reunited with Tommy!

Bruno disappeared while his mom was in military training -- from Crystal in Leavenworth, KS

In 2008 I left Bruno with my uncle while I was in Texas for a month-long training with the military. I was only gone a few days when my uncle called to tell me that Bruno had gotten out of the yard and he couldn't find him. Flyers were put up in the neighborhood, but we got no response.

Oski got out on Christmas night -- from Brett in Elk Grove, CA
We came home late from visiting family on Christmas night to find that our dog had broken the gate open and disappeared. Neighbors told us that there were very loud and numerous fireworks set off in our neighborhood in celebration of the holiday. Our dog was scared and on the run.

After we called friends and neighbors and searched the neighborhood, we went online to report Oski lost with HomeAgain.
