🎉 BRODE IS HOME SAFE! 🐾❤️
Brode, the Hamden mixed-breed, has finally been found! His dad went out this morning and walked the trail, calmly calling for him while squeaking his favorite toy. After walking around for a while, Dad returned to the parking lot and was talking with a woman when, all of a sudden, Brode appeared right at his feet! 🥹❤️
A huge thank you to Rocco for flying his drone last night and helping in the search. And a special thank you to CTDGRV Melanie for all her guidance and help in getting Brode safely home!
What an amazing reunion! Welcome home, Brode! 🏡🐶❤️
Never give up! 🙏🐾

Missing in Hamden. This male mixed breed was in his backyard on Timberwood Trail when he took off and hasn't returned. Last seen on Raelin Road. His family is very worried. He is skittish and does not get along with other dogs. If seen, do NOT call out or chase but call the # on the flyer asap with details on when and where you saw him and which direction he was headed. If you live in the area, please check any home security cameras for him. Thank you!
