Conway, the missing pup
This sweet dog Conway went missing from his home in Highlands County, Florida in November 2021. His heartbroken family looked far and wide but, sadly, to no avail. They didn’t want Conway to become a distant memory as days turned to weeks, and weeks turned to months with the poor pup still not at home, The Dodo writes.

Found thanks to a microchip
10 months to the day after Conway disappeared, a stray dog was spotted wandering the streets alone. It looked skinny and exhausted.
The pup was picked up and taken to the Highlands County Sheriff's Office’s animal services unit. Thankfully, it was microchipped. After a quick scan, authorities had an answer to who that stray pooch was. They alerted Conway’s heartbroken family that their dog was found and well!
