A dog who disappeared in California nine months ago has been miraculously found in Michigan, more than 3,770 miles away from her home to the delight of the people who have her, it was announced yesterday, Thursday.
Mishka, a terrier breed dog, had disappeared in July without a trace from her home in San Diego, near the Mexican border.
A dog missing in California since the summer has turned up more than 2,000 miles away in suburban Detroit.
