Texas dog missing for years found in New Jersey

Police used a microchip to identify Koko, a dog missing from Texas for nearly two years, and safely reunited her with her owners after finding her in New Jersey.

  • On March 4, the Clark Township Police Department found Koko roaming Clark Commons, Clark Township, New Jersey, and took the dog back to police headquarters.
  • The owners, from Glenn Heights, Texas, told police the dog had been missing for almost two years prior.
  • While awaiting contact, officers used a chip reader to identify the pet-finder service and cared for Koko, said Police Director Patrick Grady.
  • The owners flew to New Jersey after the dog was found on March 4 and arrived around March 8, thanking officers for their care in reuniting with Koko.
  • The microchip lookup shows officers used a chip reader and a pet-finder service to locate Koko's last recorded owner, highlighting how registries enable cross-state reunification.
