I just wanted to share with you all an amazing story that happened last week when FidoFinder.com helped us find a lost pup.
My friend posted a note on Facebook last week saying his family dog, Pepito (a dachshund), had run off and they couldn't find him anywhere. They were absolutely devastated. At that point he had been missing almost 2 full days. It can be very difficult to mobilize a search effort when you are distraught so I wanted to see what I could come up with. It popped into my head to do an internet search. I typed into a search engine 'found dachshund' and the name of their city. The only link that looked promising was to FidoFinder.com. Someone had posted a note the day before saying a black dachshund had been seen in the area. My heart skipped a beat!! What were the odds that it would be a different dog? I called the number and the lady said she wasn't able to catch the dog, but that it was in the area. I called my friend and told him to call the lady ASAP! He rushed over to meet her and after a lengthy search that involved going from business to business to ask people if they had seen Pepito, and looking in the woods, he finally ran came upon a mailman who told him he'd just seen a little dog in a warehouse parking lot. Sure enough there under a tractor trailer was Pepito, scared to death, but okay! He is now home with his overjoyed and grateful family.
Thank you to FidoFinder.com and the wonderful individual who took the time to post the link on your site!
Sincerely,
The Family and Friends of the Great Pepito
