Updated 5 p.m. Friday, January 13, 2023 -- A Prince William County family is mourning the loss of a beloved family dog nearly two weeks after returning home from an unplanned visit to the county animal shelter.
On December 18, the children of the Linden family let out Samus, an 11 year-old, female German Shepherd, and forgot to put on the electric fence collar. The family noticed she had gone missing and assumed she would return home.
That night, a bystander found Samus and shortly she was brought over to the Prince William County Animal Shelter. The shelter staff kept Samus overnight, and in the morning called the family after scanning for a microchip. On the afternoon of December 19, she was picked up and brought home.
