According to Denise Huertas, Rocky (her Yorkshire Terrier) disappeared while she was out taking out the trash. She didn't notice the puppy's disappearance until about an hour later, when she ran to see the location of the AirTag she had placed on her pet's collar.
Apple, it is worth remembering, does not recommend that its users use AirTag to track pets, advising them to only use it to track objects such as keys, suitcases and the like. This, however, did not stop other manufacturers from developing collars for pets with spaces for the accessory - which can be easily found on the internet for the most varied values.
Huertas completed his account by saying that, after what happened, he will acquire a microchip for his puppy so that he will never go through something like that again. The shelter that took care of Rocky used the occasion to remind other owners to always bet on things like collars with contact information to avoid cases like this.
