Owner reunites with dog stolen from her backyard more than a decade ago
A Philadelphia woman reunited with her dog after 11 years when updated microchip info enabled animal control to identify Forty, now 14 and battling kidney disease.
- On March 21, Philadelphia resident Jourdyn Koviack reunited with her dog, Forty, after an animal control officer located the pet 11 years following his theft from her backyard.
- Forty was stolen from Koviack's Philadelphia backyard in 2015, the same month her father, Frank, died. Despite relocating to Luzerne County, she frequently updated the dog's microchip information.
- Found walking in the same neighborhood where Koviack lived 11 years ago, Forty is now 14 years old and battling stage 3 kidney disease. Koviack believes the reunion was not just a coincidence.
- Koviack noted the timing: "My dad's birthday is March 18th, Forty's is the 25th, and he comes back to me on the 21st." She views the return as a final gift from her father.
- Koviack said, "I never gave up on him, like, ever," and remains committed to providing care for Forty despite his health diagnosis. She is uncertain what his prognosis will bring.
