Paul Guilbeaut, 43, was reunited with his miniature Doberman, Damian, after the dog went missing in Oklahoma City during a trip in 2017.
Despite years of searching, including posting flyers and reaching out online, Paul had lost hope until he received a text from the American Kennel Club on January 15, 2025, saying Damian had been found.
Damian had been discovered by Donna Bentley, who brought him to the vet, where a microchip revealed Paul's contact details. The reunion, after nearly a decade, was emotional, and Paul is now seeking help with vet bills via a GoFundMe page.
