It’s not clear exactly how she turned up in Michigan, but a dog named Mishka is back home with her family — in San Diego, California. It's a situation that brings meaning to the phrase "if dogs could talk." And if dogs could talk, Liz and Mehrad Houman told KGTV that they'd ask the 3-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix, "Where'd you go?"Whether she got there by taking an extra-long walk or by some other means, Mishka was more than 2,000 miles away from home when she was found wandering the streets in suburban Detroit.The dog wandered away from her family’s auto repair shop in July and had been missing for eight months when she was rescued in Harper Woods, Michigan.When she went missing, the Houman family searched for Mishka and posted flyers in the San Diego area. Their efforts yielded no results and left them full of worry.Little did they know, Mishka was on a grand adventure.In late-March, Liz got a call from The Grosse Pointe Animal Adoption Society in Harper Woods."They were like, 'Oh she's in Harper Woods,’ and I was like, 'Where is that?'" Liz told KGTV, adding that she "almost fell over" when the person on the other end of the phone said the community was located in the Detroit area. Liz was — and still is — baffled by how the pup ended up in the Motor City suburb. The dog was found walking the streets of Detroit and was eventually taken to Grosse Point Animal Adoption Society, Liz said. The animal rescue scanned the dog’s identity chip and then reached out to the Houman family.Finding out their dog was safe was a big relief. "Happiness, just pure happiness. Pure shock,” Liz said. “ We're still processing that she's here."And it seems Mishka learned something while on her grand adventure. "I will say someone taught her how to sit. So, I will thank them for that,” Liz said.See more in the video player above.
