Heartwarming Reunion: Milo, the Lost Dog, Found Safe at the Bottom of a Silo

Have you ever heard of a dog disappearing for 43 days and then miraculously reappearing? Well, that’s exactly what happened to Milo, a 4-year-old Springer Spaniel from Michigan. After an agonizing search, Milo has finally been found, trapped at the bottom of a silo nearly 20 miles away from home.

It all started when Milo went missing on January 8. Despite some sightings in early February, the trail quickly went cold. Milo’s family did everything they could to spread the word about their beloved pet, hoping that someone in the community would come forward with information to help locate him.

Then, on a fateful Sunday, Milo’s family received the news they had been desperately waiting for. The Kent County Animal Shelter posted on its Facebook account that Milo had been found that morning in Sand Lake, Michigan. He was discovered inside a bunker-style silo after apparently falling through a hole in the top.

According to the post, town residents had been hearing Milo barking for a few days. After investigating the area, a concerned individual believed he was trapped under a silo and contacted Animal Control for assistance. Local animal control services managed to locate Milo inside the silo with its 10-foot high walls and smooth surface, making escape impossible for the poor dog. With the help of some compassionate Samaritans, including one with previous animal control experience, officers were able to loop a rope around Milo’s body and safely pull him out of the silo.

Thanks to the efforts of the regional group, Local Paws LLC, Milo was matched to his missing dog description. Milo’s family rushed to retrieve their precious pooch, who had lost 33 pounds and endured a harrowing six weeks missing in the harsh Michigan winter. The shelter described the heartwarming reunion, saying, “He remembered them immediately, and many tears were shed from everyone.”

We couldn’t be happier that Milo has been reunited with his family, and we hope he is recovering well.
