Found! Dog lost in crash going home
Dec 18, 2012
DES MOINES, Iowa — An Iowa family is getting their Christmas wish: their missing dog is home.
Shannon Graves' dog, Aylah, was lost during a crash on the east mixmaster in Des Moines on Dec. 12. After the crash the dog ran from the scene.
The family has been searching for the Shih Tzu puppy ever since.
Polk County Sheriff's Office reports that the puppy was found Tuesday morning by Deputy Dan Wignall in a park in Berwick, a couple of miles from where the crash happened.
"The dog appeared to be digging through the trash in a park in Berwick and wouldn't let me get closer than about fifty yards, so it was obvious that the dog was hungry and scared," said Wignall.
Polk County Animal Control contacted the family and Graves drove to Berwick. She was able to get close to the dog.
The dog was a birthday gift for Graves 10-year old twins in June. The family told KCCI last week that Christmas just wouldn't be the same without Aylah.
Aylah is being taken to a veterinarian to be checked out.
