LORAIN, Ohio — The Lorain County Dog Kennel shared an incredible story on their Facebook page this weekend involving a long-lost dog reuniting with her family after six years.

According to the post, the dog's microchip was checked when she came into the kennel recently. The microchip returned the name of someone who currently lives in Florida.
