A dog lost for nearly six years has been reunited with his owner at the Denver Dumb Friends League.

Rufus, an 8-year-old Alaskan malamute mix, was scanned for a microchip when he was brought to the animal shelter.

The person who delivered Rufus said the dog appeared to have been abandoned, according to a release from the Dumb Friends League.

The chip made it possible to reunite Rufus with his family.

William Kemp came to get Rufus on Wednesday.

Kemp’s experience shows the importance of providing your pet with a microchip, the shelter said.
