‘I Am in Heaven': Woman's Emotional Reunion With Stolen Yorkie

Carmen Gamarra said 4-year-old Valentina was stolen from her car Sunday while she was pumping gas at a Shell station in Miami.

A woman had an emotional reunion with her Yorkie days after it was reportedly stolen from a gas station in downtown Miami.

Carmen Gamarra said 4-year-old Valentina was stolen from her car Sunday while she was pumping gas at the Shell station along Northeast 2nd Avenue.

Gamarra said a thief opened her car door and grabbed two bags -- one purse that contained her cellphone, cash and credit cards, and a carrier with Valentina inside.

A couple reportedly found Valentina on the street Tuesday near the gas station where she was stolen.

"I am in heaven," Gamarra said when she was reunited with Valentina. "I'm the happiest woman in the world, and I think she is the happiest puppy in the world right now, 'cause she's with mama."
