A family from the southern German city of Nuremberg has found their dog who disappeared in Vienna after seven years. The owners picked up the now elderly Pekingese bitch named Suzi in the Austrian capital.
The family had been looking for Suzi since April 2015. At the time, during a stay in Vienna, they tied her up in front of a shop. When they returned from shopping, Suzi was gone. The family suspected the theft, but phoned local media anyway. Which produced nothing.
Until authorities took a small black dog to the animal shelter in November. There, the animal’s name could be read from an implanted chip. The animal shelter took to social media to look for a new owner for “Dog Grandma Suzi.” Someone replied that they remembered the case of the missing Pekingese.
“I never gave up hope of seeing Suzi again,” said the owner, who will never forget the joy after the message from the Viennese kennel. “It was indescribably beautiful to see her again after all these years and to hold her in my arms,” he said.
