Look: Blind, deaf dog found stuck in fence a half mile from home
Jan. 15 (UPI) -- Animal rescuers were able to reunite a blind and deaf Mississippi dog with his owner after the canine wandered away from home and was found stuck in a fence three days later.
The Horn Lake Animal Shelter said on social media that police dispatchers contacted the facility to pass on a report of a dog caught in a fence.
A responding rescuer immediately recognized the canine as Bobo, a 16-year-old blind and deaf Yorkie who had been missing from his home for three days.
The shelter said Bobo had somehow managed to wander more than a half mile from home before getting stuck in the fence.
"Bobo is alive, safe and back home because someone in our community saw a little dog that needed help and didn't look the other way," the post said.
