A four-year-old Labrador went missing from her Kansas home for a few days. Now, if this were either of my two Westies they would just end up at the closest source of free food, but not this pooch. As the owners rightfully panicked, they would end up finding their dog, Cleo, safe and sound over 50 miles from Olathe, Kansas in Lawson, Missouri. The family had moved to Kansas two years ago but Cleo found her way back to their old home. The new owners of the home in Missouri found her sitting on the porch.

A dog named Cleo, who disappeared from her home in Kansas earlier this month, turned up a few days later at her old home in Missouri, about 50 miles away. The four-year-old Labrador retriever-border collie mix showed up on the front porch of his family’s old home in Lawson, Missouri which is about 30 miles northeast of Kansas City.The new owners of the home were able to check her microchip and learned that Cleo used to live at the home. Cleo’s owners, who had moved to Olathe, Kansas, about 50 miles southwest of Lawson, couldn’t believe it when the owners of their old home called and said they had Cleo.

They had posted on Facebook a week earlier about the missing dog. Neither family knows how Cleo made the trip, which would have required her to cross at least one river. “It’s a mystery, something we will probably never know,” said the family.
