They spent 4 beautiful years together, but when things changed for their family, she eventually had to part ways with her loving dog. Her dad landed a new home-based job, that required a quiet environment, free from any kind of distraction, dog barking included.

For this reason, when Nicole was 14, her dad brought her beloved Chloe to Washington Area Humane Society, leaving both of them heartbroken.

8 years later, Nicole noticed on her Facebook feed a post about a senior dog up for adoption. The dog’s name was Chloe, she was a Pomeranian-Poodle cross, and was 11-years-old, the exact same age ‘her’ Chloe would’ve been today. Nicole had a strong feeling the senior dog could be the same Chloe she was forced to give up when she was 10, so she decided to go see the dog.

When they finally met, Chloe licked her face like she used to do in the good old days, and Nicole was pretty sure she actually was ‘her’ Chloe. In spite of that, her family wouldn’t believe her, so they took the dog to the vet to have her microchip scanned, and to their surprise, it turned out that senior dog was actually the pup they brought to the shelter 8 years earlier. Today, Nicole and Chloe are making up for the lost time, and Nicole just can’t wait for Chloe to be best friends with her 4-month-old daughter. Take a look at some of their before and after photos, and read the rest of their wonderful story below.
