A COUPLE have been reunited with their dog – four years after he was stolen.
The man handed him to the Local Police as he was unable to care for him.
One of the officers decided to keep him, and took him home to give him a bath before taking him to the vet the next day for a general health check.
In addition to finding an ear infection, the vet discovered a microchip showing that he belonged to Eva Leal, from Sant Boi de Llobregat (Barcelona) and her husband Hernán Cociña.
He had been stolen from them in Agullana in 2006 when he was just a year old, and the broken-hearted couple eventually gave him up for lost.
But it transpired that Eva is a relative of one of the Local Police officers in Agullana, and she was immediately contacted to come and collect her dog.
The thrilled young woman says Lucas recognised her husband straight away, but took a little time to recognise her.
Their daughter, who had not been born when Lucas was stolen, has already fallen in love with him.
“She pulls his fur and he doesn't complain at all,” says a radiant Eva.
The couple are now keen to make up for lost time, and say Lucas enjoys going for walks in the park near their home 'as though nothing had ever happened'.
Aside from the ear infection, Lucas is in good health and appears to have been well-fed.
