DOG GONE MIRACLE. PET RETURNED AFTER FIVE YEARS

COOKIE

HER disappearance left her owners barking mad, but for five-years they had no leads as to where beloved family pet Cookie had gone.
But over half-a decade after the chihuahua disappeared she was returned to her owners, who had long given her up for dead.
Owner Alejandro Pantoja had almost given up Cookie for dead after she vanished from his San Diego, CA home.    
"We were surprised," he told the Union Tribune. "We had nearly given up hope on ever finding her."
He added that she seems to remember him, his wife and his three daughters.
Cookie was returned after a woman called animal services to say she found the tiny dog on her doorstep along with a black terrier.
Monica Madrigal told the paper: "I really didn't want to give the dog back because she was so cute, and I really like animals too, but I knew what the owner must have been going through."
