A dog owner and her beloved pooch who had been missing for almost three years shared a beautiful reunion when the American bully was found and taken to a local vet by a good Samaritan. Jacqueline Perez and her husband Martin shared an extremely close bond with their dog, Luna, before she was taken from near their home. According to Jacqueline, from Fort Worth, Texas, Luna was let outside to go to the bathroom and never returned. Knowing Luna was not the type of dog to simply disappear, Jacqueline and Martin assumed she had been taken – and as the weeks, months and years went by, the couple increasingly lost hope that Luna would ever be returned, despite being chipped. But then, in May 2024, Luna was found by a local dog trainer, Chris Williams, from Forney, Texas. At the time, Luna was severely dehydrated and weighed just 28 pounds, and so Chris cared for Luna for a week and liaised with a nearby vet, Treasured Pets Vet Clinic. Once Luna’s chip had been scanned, vets were able to contact Jacqueline and Martin to tell them the good news. In complete disbelief, Jacqueline headed to Treasured Pets on May 31, where Luna was brought into the lobby to meet her. Immediately recognizing her owner, Luna wagged her tail with joy and pulled at her leash to head towards Jacqueline for a long-awaited hug.
