A Happy Ending For This Lucky Dog


DOG TO REUNITE WITH FAMILY CROSS COUNTRY

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) - A happy homecoming is in the works for a Virginia Beach military family, but it's not what you might think.

Rick Smith and his family lost their dog "Bruno" a year-and-a-half ago when they lived in Washington State.
But just last Friday, the 9-year-old yellow lab appeared outside Kristen Abercrombie's home, covered in mud.

She took Bruno to a veterinarian, who found a microchip with his old vet's phone number. She couldn't believe how far away his family was.

The Smith family arranged for a travel kennel and plane ticket to get Bruno to Virginia. He's set to arrive in Norfolk April 8 on a flight out of Seattle.
