The smell of bacon helped lure a runaway puppy home, reports the Huffington Post.
Misty, a rescued pit bull, vanished from her New Jersey foster home last Friday. After search attempts in the nearby woods and a $2,000 reward failed to bring the dog home, one volunteer suggested cooking bacon to attract the 9-month-old puppy.
The scent of bacon cooking in the backyard lured Misty back home on Monday afternoon according to the Star-Ledger.
This is the second happy ending for Misty in a matter of months. According to the New York Daily News, she was first discovered on the streets of Brooklyn several weeks ago with multiple injuries, possibly used as bait to train other dogs in a fighting ring.
