Abby returned home after 10 years away


By Rebecca Taylor, News Reporter

A dog has returned 10 years after she wandered off from home, leaving her family none the wiser as to where she has been.

Debra Suierveld mourned her dog Abby when she ran away from the family home in Apollo, Pennsylvania, a decade ago.

Despite her being microchipped, they didn't hear anything about the beloved dog's whereabouts.

But on Saturday, Abby turned up about 10 miles away on the front porch of George Spiering.
