About 18 months after his German shepherd went missing, a Canadian man said he was finally able to accept that his dog was gone forever. The dog, Dozer, was stolen from his backyard, leaving him “devastated,” as his friends put it.
The owner, Richard Brower, randomly browsed the Claresholm Rescue Society website one day when he saw a photo of what appeared to be his dog. He typed in “German shepherds for sale,” CNN reported.
He immediately called his dad, who lived close to the shelter.
“My heart just kind of sank and I started shaking,” he said, reported the CBC. “I called Claresholm right away.”
