Dog missing for seven years back to reunite with their owners (with PHOTO)

When in 2007 John Hartman and his wife lost their Labrador retriever, Buddy, during a violent wave of fires that hit California, thought it never would see your four-legged friend.

However, during a visit to his son, who lives in Southern California â€" shortly after the animal disappear, Hartman moved to the Oklahoma State â€" the couple received a strange call from animal Service Department of California. A passerby found the family dog wandering near the beach and took it to the pound.

Thanks to a microchip that Hartman had deployed as a precaution, the animal, the Kennel employees realized that Buddy was missing for seven years and belonged to John Hartman and his wife. Later, the animal was handed over to the owners, who never expected to be able to see the animal after all this time.

"I give a lot of animals to their owners here in California and elsewhere in the world, but return an animal after seven years was our record," says Dan DeSousa, Deputy Director of the Department of Animal Services, cites the Huffington Post.

The Hartman, who lost the House in the wake of the fires never realized what happened to Buddy. The dog was found in 2007 but eventually escape and never knew of his whereabouts until now.
