Runaway dog Jazzy has been reunited with her owners after seven years on the loose.
– I have always wondered if she was alive and if she has been well, says owner Kerry Smith.
The story began during a Fourth of July celebration when Jazzy was spooked by fireworks and ran away, the family searched and searched with no luck.
But even though the years passed, they did not lose hope and now after seven years the incredible happened; Jazzy was found in a hotel room in Florida, almost 130 miles from her family in Texas.
– My message to everyone is to chip mark your dog. I knew that as soon as she was taken to a vet I would get the call I had been waiting for for seven years. She’s not feeling so well right now but we’re going to make her feel better, says Kerry Smith.
