Lost Dog In Reston Reunited With Owner

RESTON, VA -- For those worried about a dog that was lost in the West Market neighborhood near Reston Town Center earlier this month, there's good news: he's been reunited with his owner.

Kristen Krowe, who originally uploaded the dog's information to FoundLost Dogs on April 2, was reunited last week with his family.

"The owner saw my post on Facebook Found Lost Dogs page and picked him up from the shelter last Tuesday as soon as they opened," Krowe told Patch in an email. "She was grateful he was safe and didn’t get hit by a car. His name is Gus, I’m assuming 12 years old, she said it was the first time he got out in 12 years and she got him microchipped."
