Loyal dog who stood by dead buddy reunited with family
LOS ANGELES -- A Labrador retriever who was videotaped as she guarded the body of a yellow Lab hit and killed by a car in Southern California has been reunited with her family.
The family of Maggie claimed her Monday from a Los Angeles Shelter, after she'd been spayed and microchipped and dozens had offered to adopt her.
A good Samaritan saw the incident in La Puente last Wednesday, called officers, put traffic cones around the dogs and took the video, which touched hearts across the country.
Animal Care and Control Capt. Aaron Reyes said officers were getting the dogs out of the street at the same time Maggie's family was at the shelter looking for her.
