Dog Missing For 2 Months Rescued From Busy Road — Then Comes The Most Heartwarming Twist
The other day, Yamy Nuñez was driving through the bustling streets of Los Angeles, California, when something unusual caught her eye — a small, mop-like dog with tangled fur and a bright pink nose wandering straight into heavy traffic.
Cars zoomed past, and no one seemed to slow down. Without hesitation, Yamy jumped out of her car, waving her arms to stop traffic and protect the frightened pup.
“She was crossing a busy street,” wrote Suzette Hall, founder of Logan’s Legacy 29, on Facebook. “Yamy got out of her car to stop traffic …”
Yamy, a longtime volunteer for the rescue organization, risked her own safety to reach the trembling dog. The pup was terrified and matted from head to toe, but Yamy refused to give up. After patiently coaxing her for several minutes, she finally managed to secure the little dog and carry her to safety.
“After some time, she had this sweet girl safe,” Hall wrote.
At Camino Pet Hospital, the veterinary team immediately surrounded the dog — now known as Bella — with warmth and care. During her checkup, they scanned her for a microchip and, to everyone’s surprise, found one with an active number.
When they called the number, a family answered — and what they heard next left them speechless.
“Bella had been missing for two months,” Hall shared. “They literally couldn’t believe she was found alive.”
For weeks, Bella’s family had searched everywhere, posting flyers and driving around their neighborhood, but there had been no sign of her. As time passed, their hope began to fade — until the miraculous phone call came.
Overjoyed, Hall and the veterinary team quickly arranged a reunion. But first, Bella needed a little TLC. After months on the streets, her fur was painfully matted, so she was treated to a long-overdue bath and grooming session.
When Bella was finally clean and fluffy again, Hall drove her home to her waiting family. The moment Bella saw them, she burst with excitement, wagging her tail uncontrollably. Her family fell to their knees, crying tears of pure happiness.
“Oh my goodness, there wasn’t a dry eye,” Hall wrote. “She instantly recognized her family and her dog family. I can’t explain the joy.”
After two long months of fear and uncertainty, Bella was finally back where she belonged — surrounded by love.
“Miracles still happen,” Hall said. “God sent his angel, my friend Yamy.”
What began as a dangerous moment on a busy street turned into a reunion filled with tears, gratitude, and love — a reminder that sometimes, miracles find us when we least expect them.
