It seems almost a fairy tale that of Gemma, a dog who vanished into thin air in 2014 and has now found its owner. The story comes from Toscolano Maderno, in the Brescia area. It was September and Gemma, frightened by some boys and the sound of a shutter, had run away on the Maderno lakefront. The research had proved useless, no one had seen it since. For Monica, a great pain after she had welcomed the dog in 2013, found in the woods by volunteers from a kennel.
When she had lost hope, a few days ago she received a phone call from the veterinary clinic in Cunettone di Salò: Gemma had a microchip and had been found in Gardone Riviera. The woman had never changed her phone number and it was therefore easy to trace her back. It is not known where Gemma has lived in these seven and a half years, she was probably a stray and maybe every now and then someone gave her to eat. As she told the local press, Monica invites all those who see abandoned dogs on the street to report them, "maybe someone is looking for them".
