Unfortunately, this is a story that I've heard many times.

I cannot ever understand why when there is a chance that ONE pet has an opportunity to get back home, some uncaring staffer doesn't follow through, double check, triple check, to make sure that pet gets reunited.

So many companion animals are killed every day in shelters across the country. One would think that getting a loved pet reunited with his family would be the HIGHEST priority.
