Solow, min pin

Solow, the miniature pinscher snatched from a car window last month, was back with his family on Wednesday after he was found wandering on the city’s Northwestside.

Philip Squires said the people who found the 4-year-old pinscher along Kessler Boulevard, West Drive took him to Michigan Road Animal Hospital, where the staff scanned his implanted microchip and identified him.

The Squires picked up Solow from the hospital Wednesday morning.

“He’s healthy and in good spirits. He’s glad to see us when we got there,” Squires said. “He’s back to his usual self. We got home, and he started sniffing around, making sure he’s in the right place.”

Solow disappeared while riding with Mary Squires on the Northwestside. She said she was at a stoplight at Georgetown Road and 56th Street on April 20 when a car pulled up closely to her right. Solow was sitting in the passenger seat, with his chin on the window edge.

The light turned green, Mary Squires stepped on the gas — and a man in the car reached over and snatched Solow out of the window.

“I don’t understand why they would’ve taken him,” Squires said. “I have no idea what was on those people’s minds when they snatched the dog out of the car.”
