In March 2021, Panda and his sister Nala were having a playful time in their Colorado backyard when they suddenly vanished. Nala came back the next day, but Panda didn’t. His family tried everything to find him – they put up posters, shared on social media, and even walked around the neighborhood shouting his name. But Panda seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

Nevertheless, Panda’s family never gave up hope. They kept believing that one day they’d find their furry friend. Luckily, that day actually came, but it was quite a surprise—Panda turned up in Kansas!

Helping Hands Humane Society took Panda in, not knowing that he had a family who had been searching for him. Sadly, Panda had been through some tough times before getting rescued, and he was really scared when he arrived at the shelter. It took a week before they could get close to him and scan his microchip. After that, they quickly got in touch with his family.

When Panda’s family got the call, they were filled with a mix of emotions – happiness and excitement, but also worry about how Panda had been. The shelter warned them that Panda had become quite nervous around humans, so they weren’t sure how he’d react when they saw him again. But Panda’s family was so determined to bring him back home no matter what that they made the long trip from Colorado to Kansas, hoping for a sweet reunion. Source: Helping Hands Humane Society

As they approached Panda’s kennel, everyone was holding their breath. And when Panda saw them, it was like magic. The once-fearful dog transformed into a happy puppy; he whined, wagged his tail like crazy, and jumped into their arms as soon as he could. It was truly a heartwarming reunion that brought tears to everyone’s eyes.

With his family back, Panda’s true personality showed up. He let shelter staff pet him for the first time, showing his loving nature that had been hidden by fear. Back in Colorado, Panda settled back into his family’s life as if he had never been away.

Today, Panda is doing great, and his family is once again complete. Our hearts are filled with joy for them, and we wish them a lifetime of happiness.
