Family finds missing pet dog, learns he may not come home after being adopted by someone else

A New Brunswick family whose 13-year-old lab was found after having gone missing for months has discovered that he may never come home after he was adopted to another family.

When the Arbeau family’s yellow lab name Rosco went missing back in April from their home in Upper Blackville, the family was frantic, said Leah Arbeau.

She said the family spent weeks combing 150 acres of woods around their rural home trying to find their family pet.

Nearly two months passed and Arbeau said they had pretty well given up hope of finding Rosco until he happened upon a picture of his dog up for adoption on The Greater Moncton SPCA’s Facebook page — more than two hours away.

It turns out that just five days earlier, Rosco was adopted out. They were told by a representative from the SPCA that the new owners, despite the Arbreau’s plea to get him back, have decided to keep him.
