Earlier this month, however, Fox received a call from the company that microchipped the dog. She then received a call from a Nashville animal shelter confirming that the dog had been brought in after someone found it wandering around on the street.

"It was pure amazement," Fox said of her reaction. "I’m still amazed."

According to Fox, when she arrived at the shelter, the dog seemed to recognize her and licked her in the face. When she brought the pet home, he seemed to remember the house.
