"The dog has been recovered safe and sound." The story of the dog who had been wandering dangerously for weeks along State Road 195 near Teulada has come to a happy end. Mayor Angelo Milia announced the animal's discovery in a Facebook post.

I've received updates from the animal protection officers who, in recent weeks, have been working on behalf of the Municipality: the dog has been recovered safe and sound. This is a significant achievement, the fruit of work carried out in silence and under unprecedented media pressure, the result of exploitation.

This comment from the mayor explicitly references the heated controversy that erupted after the issuance of an ordinance on April 4th prohibiting the serving of food and drink to the animal. The goal was to keep the dog away from the highway to prevent the risk of road accidents. However, the decision sparked conflicting opinions among animal lovers, culminating in insults and direct threats to the mayor.
