Eight Years, One Incredible Reunion

On a sunny day in August 2011, while Silvia and her husband enjoyed the beach, Maya was with Silvia’s mother. A brief market trip later, Maya was nowhere in sight.

The search began. Posters were plastered, neighborhoods were scoured, but Maya remained elusive. Silvia’s heart ached, suspecting a cruel kidnapping.

“I looked for her everywhere, for months and months… I buzzed all the houses in the area, and I even put up missing dog posters in the city,” said Silvia for Corriere.it.

As years rolled on, hope dimmed. But destiny had a twist. Come August 2019, a call from Guardie Zoofile Ambientali Norsaa Latina, a beacon of hope for animals, brought the news: Maya was found!

Overwhelmed, Silvia recalls, “It felt unreal. Tears flowed as I realized my Maya was coming home.” Tracking Silvia was a challenge due to an outdated microchip, but determination prevailed.

Their reunion was pure magic. Maya, now with a touch of gray, was every bit the pup Silvia remembered.

“She’s back and more attached than ever, even guarding my shoes as she sleeps,” Silvia chuckles.

However, the scars of the past remained. Maya needed surgery, likely a result of overbreeding. Silvia’s suspicion? Maya was exploited and then discarded.

In her interview with Mediaset Infinity, she expressed her belief that they had taken full advantage of her for profit before leaving her behind.

Today, Maya’s spirit shines bright. Back home, she frolics with her sibling, Lucky, savoring every moment of her second chance.
