Dog reunited with owner more than a year after being taken

Jennings County Animal Control helped reunite the pair

(NORTH VERNON, Ind.) – A dog and its owner have been reunited after more than a year thanks to a Facebook post and the power of social media.

A Labrador was turned into Jennings County Animal Control (JCAC) by a person who said it was sick and that the dog's name was Lobo. 

JCAC officials discovered that the dog wasn’t really sick and its name also isn’t Lobo. 

A microchip revealed that the dog is actually named Brady and is registered to an address in Rushville. 

The agency made a Facebook post and a short time later Eric Cox replied, “That’s my dog!” 

Cox later said that the Labrador had been taken more than a year ago and was feared dead. 

Somehow, it ended up in Jennings County but that all changed when Cox and Brady were reunited on Wednesday!

"I'm still in disbelief. We both had our crazy journey and found each other again," Cox told The 812.
