Dog missing from California home since July found in Michigan
Newsy
Mishka, a terrier mix, had run off from her home in San Diego, and a shelter found her roaming the streets in suburban Detroit last week.
No, this isn't a storyline for another "Homeward Bound" remake — but it could be.
The most recent "Incredible Journey" film, released by Disney in 1993, followed two dogs and a cat through the California wilderness as they tried to get back to their parents, who the animals mistakenly believed had abandoned them away from home.
But in this real-life story that also began in California, the animal did the abandoning, and her "Incredible Journey" back to her family covers a bit more of the country than just one state.
In fact, Mishka, a terrier mix living with her family in San Diego, had traveled more than double the distance of the entire state of California when she was finally found 2,343 miles away from home, roaming the streets of suburban Detroit.
Last week, Harper Woods Police picked up a dog they didn't yet know was Mishka after a "concerned" resident called reporting the stray, and then they dropped the pup off at Grosse Pointe Animal Adoption Society, the shelter said in a Facebook video.
