ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. — Jim Arrighi last saw Petey, his 4-year-old Jack Russell terrier, in the backyard of his Erin, Tenn., home.

That was in July, and the 73-year-old retired electrician had nearly given up on seeing his pet again when he learned the dog turned up safe about 500 miles away in suburban Detroit.

A Michigan Humane Society volunteer was expected to return Petey to Arrighi Thursday morning...

While struggling with the loss of his dog, Arrighi also lost his wife, Juanita, who suffered from pulmonary disease and died Oct. 12.

Awww...I'll bet Petey will be glad to be back home. Sounds like his owner needs him back home, too.

I love pet reunion stories. :yesss:
 
Oh gee...I am smiling thru tears.

Yay Petey! and :heart: to Jim.

I didn't read the links...how did Petey end up in MI?

Wish he could talk about his adventure...
 
I posted in the pet corner tonight. If you move or change phone numbers, email, etc., be sure to change your contact info with your pets' chip company so if your pet gets away they can track you down! Great story!
