Woman adopts senior dog not knowing she is the exact same dog she had as a little girl




A heartwarming reunion unfolded for a woman who unexpectedly discovered an 11-year-old pomeranian-poodle mix available for adoption on Facebook.
Little did Nicole Grimes, a resident of Pennsylvania, anticipate that this encounter would lead her to reconnect with her cherished childhood puppy, also named Chloe.

Nicole recounted her extraordinary tale to the BBC, describing the moment she came across the dog's photo and sensed a striking familiarity. She shared, "It was really strange when I found out they were both called Chloe. It just clicked when she was introduced to me as Chloe."

The defining moment occurred when Nicole finally met her 'new' dog in person. "When she was dropped off, she came running up to me and was licking my face. That's when I knew in my heart that she had to be the same dog," she expressed.

However, Nicole's husband initially harbored doubts about this seemingly improbable coincidence. She explained, "He thought I was crazy, so we decided to check the microchip." Their skepticism evaporated when they discovered that the dog indeed had the same microchip as the pet they had surrendered for adoption seven years ago.

"We couldn't believe it. It's just unbelievable!" Nicole exclaimed.

Chloe's journey began when she was originally given to Nicole by her grandmother. "I was 10 years old, and all I wanted was a puppy. She was wearing a pink bow when Nana gave her to me. We were best friends," Nicole warmly recalled.

Sadly, Nicole's grandmother passed away several years ago, and being reunited with Chloe has provided solace for her family in coping with their loss.
Reflecting on the challenging decision to put Chloe up for adoption years ago, Nicole recalled the sadness she felt at that time. She explained, "My dad got a new job working from home, but Chloe was too yappy, and he had to be on the phone all the time. I remember my dad picking me up from school when I was 14 with the dog in the back seat. I knew we had to give her away."

Today, Chloe is adapting well to her new home with her original owner. Nicole shared, "She is a little smaller and has no teeth, but she still loves to run around."

Chloe has also found a new companion in the next generation of the Grimes family, as Nicole's four-month-old daughter, Violet, has developed a special bond with the furry family member. Nicole described their interaction, saying, "They love to play with each other. Chloe is very gentle with Violet, and it warms my heart to see them together."

This heartening reunion between Nicole and her childhood pet, Chloe, serves as a testament to the enduring connections between humans and their beloved animals.
