NBC 6 Pet Segment Helps Reunite Family With Lost Dog

It was a happy reunion for a South Florida family who is now back with their lost dog after months of unsuccessful searching.

The Berrios family was tuned in to NBC 6 over the weekend when they spotted Rocco on our pet adoption segment. They immediately called Broward Animal Control to arrange the reunion, and now that Rocco is back with his family, he couldn't be happier.

To make up for lost time, the family plans to help him put on some pounds and supply him with endless belly rubs.

"When we went to see the dog for the first time, he went absolutely crazy, just jumping. It was totally awesome," Michael Berrios said.

"I'm really happy. When I saw him, I got all teared up and it was just a great experience," Molly Berrios added.

In another twist of fate, Michael met a long-lost cousin during his quest to reunite with his dog.
