Woman Kept Updating Her Lost Dog’s Microchip—11 Years Later, It Brought Him Home

 

March 27, 2026





Eleven years ago, the pit bull was taken from his family’s backyard in Mayfair, Philadelphia. At the time, his owner Jourdyn Koziak’s son was just one month old. They searched, posted flyers, and held onto hope—but as the years passed, that hope slowly faded.

Then, out of nowhere, everything changed.

After being found roaming the streets of Philadelphia by a little girl, Forty Cal was brought to ACCT Philly. When staff scanned him, they found a microchip—and because Jourdyn had updated her contact information just two months earlier, they were able to reach her. Throughout the years, she had never stopped updating the microchip.

The call was something she never expected.

Pit Bull Rescued from Dog Fighting Finds Friendship With Rabbit

 


November 6, 2018


A Pit Bull and adult Flemish giant rabbit aren’t the first pair of animals to come to mind when you think snuggle buddies. But that’s what’s happened in Mindy Hayes’ home.

“My pitbull is amazing and this shows that it’s NOT the breed. Grace originally was used for fighting, later ended up tied to a tree (we don’t know for how long), then to The Anna Shelter, then I adopted her. She was only 10 months old. Now she is a fun, loving, crazy wild girl,” Hayes shares on Facebook.

But Grace wasn’t so crazy or wild that Hayes thought she might be a danger to Sophie, the rabbit she brought home last year. She still took things carefully, however.

Grace and Sophie were introduced to one another cautiously at first, but soon it became apparent to Hayes that the two shared an instant connection. “They sniffed one another, and they just blossomed from there,” she told the Dodo.

The two now snuggle together on the couch every day. Sometimes, Grace gives Sophie a groom, which the rabbit doesn’t seem to mind one bit.

Hayes adds that “Grace would groom Sophie until she is sopping wet if I let her!”

The dog and bunny love to spend time in each other’s company and their loving friendship is a marvel to Hayes’ friends and acquaintances. But it’s no surprise to Hayes who says Grace and Sophie are both happy, sociable and loving to everyone. She writes, “The bond these two have is unbreakable.”

Man Takes Senior Dog Home So He Won’t Die Alone—But the Dog Finds New Purpose

 



March 21, 2026


Zack picked up a confused 16-year-old dog from the shelter so he wouldn’t die alone. He couldn’t hear or see out of one eye and he was diagnosed with cancer. “You could just feel his pain…he really wasn’t do well.”

Zack didn’t think the sweet boy, who he named Henry, had much longer – maybe a couple of days or couple of weeks.

But the next morning Henry seemed to perk up. Then he got surgery for his cancer and again he surprised Zack by bouncing back.

Months later, he’s galloping around the yard after his foster dad. Zack credits Henry’s newfound energy and purpose to having a family.
