This Family’s Dog Was Stolen Last Year Before Christmas. But, This Year, They Got The Best Christmas Present Ever!

Last year on December 14, Pippin the then five-month-old Australian Shepherd was stolen in front of a store in Oregon. Her family searched all over, but she was nowhere to be found. They had to spend Christmas without their beloved canine, but this Christmas will be A LOT better.

Police received a tip and upon arrival, they found the dog and a woman who matched the suspect’s description. They brought the pup to a nearby pet hospital to confirm her identity through her microchip. After a year, her family hadn’t given up hope. They kept her crate and toys, and even her Christmas stocking! Watch how happy Pippin looks to be reunited with her family!
