Video shows dog zooming across Naples Airport tarmac—earning nickname, happy ending

nbcmiami.com · 13hShare

A small stray dog gave the crew at Naples Airport a run for their money, more than earning his nickname—and his happy ending. The loose canon was found sprinting across the tarmac in the second week of September, and a video of the hilarious chase went viral. “We had a visitor at the airport this week— and let us tell you… this little stray gave us a serious run for our money,” the airport said on its Facebook page. “There was chasing. There was strategizing. There was a whole lot of ‘Where did he GO?!'” The pup was (eventually) safely caught, and Collier County Domestic Animal Services was working to track down his owner. “Since he didn’t have a microchip, he had to complete his mandatory 2-day stray wait while we hoped his family would come looking for him,” animal services said. “They didn’t… But someone else did.” @nbcnews A dog captured on video running across the tarmac at Naples Airport has been adopted by a Naples family after the clip went viral online. ♬ original sound – nbcn
