GMG Reader The Purple Place writes with joyful news:
“Benji was FOUND today (12/27/14) in the Friend Street Area around 4pm WOOHOO!! He was found by one of the many caring members of the Community who have been searching for HIM for the past few days! I am SO HAPPY to know he’ll now be safe and only PRAY he goes to a home to that will LOVE and Cherish him forever !!! <3″
Thank you Purple Place for letting us know. I am so grateful that you took the time to write. Thank you to everyone in the community who searched for Bengi. He’s quite an admirable soul to have survived for over a week on his own! It’s a Wonderful Life!!!
Good Morning Gloucester 
He will be loved, I know the family was sick over his escape after 5 minutes of adoption. That’s why he was not collared.

Thank you Kristen so very much for writing and letting us know. I understand how the family feels entirely. Our first Scottish terrier was a rescue dog and was also a “bolter.” It was tremendously worrisome and very frightening when he took off. I’ll never forget the morning my daughter, who was around nine at the time, and I were chasing him down East Main Street at seven in the morning, in our nightgowns!
Just so overjoyed he’s home safe and sound!
