**************************************************************
At first, nothing seemed unusual about the stray Maltese dog that was handed in to Turlock Police Animal Services. But after scanning her microchip, the officers realized just how wrong they had been. Surely, this couldn’t be the same dog? But all the evidence proved that it was, and now they had an important call to make.

May 15, 2017, was a wonderful day for many, but it was especially so for little Trixie, a 13-year-old Maltese dog who was found early that afternoon in Turlock, California. It was an unnamed good Samaritan who discovered the pint-sized pooch, and they’d noticed her in a most unlikely location.

Yes, Trixie had been spotted in the car park of a Walmart store, and her owner was nowhere in sight. The kind-hearted citizen correctly guessed she had been left there all alone and now needed a safe place to stay. Consequently, they handed the dog in to the authorities.

The citizen left Trixie in the capable hands of the Turlock Police Animal Services. And while she was there, Trixie was medically assessed and found to be in good health. Luckily, it also turned out that Trixie had been microchipped, and so her information could be tracked.

Unfortunately, however, there was one major complication: the Maltese’s microchip was faulty. But although the officers couldn’t get all the information that they needed from the damaged implant, they did find something to identify Trixie. Yes, they discovered that the dog was registered to a veterinarian who might be able to shed some light on the stray’s past.

The Turlock Police Department later described the unfolding events on its official website on May 19, 2017. “Animal Services Officer Katie Butler did some detective work,” it wrote, “and found the veterinarian on record for Trixie.” However, it emerged that the little dog was far from home.

Both the microchip and the veterinarian’s location revealed something surprising: Trixie actually came from Kentucky. How she’d got to Turlock was a mystery, but it was something that the officers were interested to find out. And, to that end, they were very keen indeed to talk to Trixie’s owners.

The veterinarian was able to put the officers in contact with the dog’s humans. But what Animal Services discovered when they spoke to Trixie’s mommy and daddy was astonishing. As it turned out, they couldn’t have been the ones who had abandoned the Maltese for one very good reason.

Tammy Crews and her family – Trixie’s owners – had, in fact, reported their pet pooch as missing three years previously, and had been devastated by the loss of their little dog. Trixie disappeared without any explanation one day in January 2015, and the Crews family hadn’t seen their pet since.

Unsurprisingly, then, the distraught family launched a campaign to try and get their pet back. Not only did they scour the neighborhood for the missing dog, but they also posted flyers in case anyone else had seen her. Unfortunately, neither approach brought any success.

In an act of desperation, they even offered a reward for Trixie’s safe return, but that too proved futile. The family had, however, been careful to microchip the dog when she was younger, and so there was still a chance that she could be found. All the Crews family could do, then, was wait and see.
