Arizona RepublicElizabeth Starnegg holds her dogs, Riley and Sokka, as her partner, Joey Woodbury, puts on their kerchiefs on Nov. 7, 2019. In the background is Vash, Starnegg's 6-month-old Shiba Inu.MESA, Ariz. – Elizabeth Starnegg wrestled with the loss of her beloved husky, Sokka, for almost three years, until the check of a microchip this week revealed he was alive and well, six hours away, in Mesa, Arizona.

The pet sitter, and eventually Starnegg, never realized a Yuma man had found Sokka, just one street over from where the dog had run off. The man cared for Sokka for almost two years, but reached out for help when he couldn’t afford to care for Sokka’s sarcoptic mange, a highly contagious skin condition found in dogs.

Clark said he, his wife and their 13-year-old granddaughter fell in love with Sokka. They were all visibly moved on Thursday night during the highly anticipated reunion.My granddaughter "has been crying for two days," Clark said. “But, of course, we were happy to hear they’d found his owners.” Starnegg said a medium once told her that she could sense Sokka fading away from this life. The medium said she could feel his presence at a trailer park near an Indian reservation in Yuma.

She said she was delighted that Sokka seemed to immediately recognize Riley, her other husky, who had previously been Sokka’s best friend.When she saw them starting to play together, Starnegg described it as “Disney magic.”

Yes

That is great!!
