Rustico Samson Jr. and his family endured a nightmare for three long months.
Coco, their cherished puppy, had vanished from their Philippines home. And despite their regular searches, Coco was nowhere to be seen.
“I cried. There was so much sorrow, so much pain,” Samson told The Dodo. “Coco is more than a pet. He’s family.”
But as months passed, Samson never gave up looking.
Samson searched the city extensively each day that Coco was missing in search of him.
I looked around every corner,” he declared. “I even started crying as I looked.”
Samson asked friends and new acquaintances for assistance, giving them a description of Coco and requesting that they keep an eye out for her. And sure enough, the effort was fruitful.
Samson hurried to the location when a stray dog matching his description was seen in a parking garage three months after Coco vanished.
Samson remarked, “I knew it was him the instant I spotted a dog laying on the floor of the parking garage. “I was 100 percent certain that Coco was there.
“I was overwhelmed. I was so happy,” Samson said. “I think Coco felt the same way at that moment. You could hear him crying like a baby.”
Their hearts were suddenly healed.
The months that Coco spent as a lost dog on the streets had left their mark. He was clean but slender and generally in good condition. Fortunately, it was nothing that his family’s devotion couldn’t help him overcome.
Coco’s return home altered everything.
The home is once more filled with uplifting auras, Samson added. The mood has improved.
Samson would have never stopped looking for Coco. But thankfully, now his search is over.
“When it comes to having a pet, it doesn’t matter if you’re rich or poor, as long as you have heart and love to them like family,” he said. “When someone in your family is lost, you never give up.”
