WISCONSIN - A MALTESE dog named Max is headed home to Florida after he was spotted in Chicago - 1,609 km from where he vanished.
Mr Richard Gonzalez had reported a pet theft after Max disappeared several months ago from his daughter's yard in Brandon, Florida, The Journal Times reported.
Mr Gonzalez says he thought that Max would never get far. But the pooch was identified in Chicago by an implanted microchip.
Mr Gonzalez contacted the Northcentral Maltese Rescue to retrieve Max. Rescue director Mary Palmer had the dog taken to Racine, Wisconsin, and he will be flown on Saturday to Florida.
Mr Gonzalez says he has no idea how his dog got so far away. He says he was so thrilled about the find that he almost asked Ms Palmer to put Max on the phone. -- AP
