Florida Woman Finds Her Missing Dog, After a Year, on Facebook

Lisa Raulerson was living in West Palm Beach in October 2020 when her 15-year-old dog, Sparky, escaped through a gate that mistakenly had been left open.

Lisa says there was no sign of her longtime pup until she recently spotted him on Sunshine State Westie Rescue's Facebook page.

The rescue said Sparky had been brought to a shelter as a stray and the rescue had stepped in to prevent the dog from being euthanized. Officials said Sparky had a microchip, but the chip was not registered, so they couldn't get information about his owner.

Lisa and Sparky were reunited 331 days after her pup's escape through that gate. .
