Valerya Bennett, a 13-year-old from London, was crossing the park when her cherished dog Ola was seized in front of her. In an effort to find their lost cat, Valerya and her parents started the social media company Find Ola.
People continued to avidly look for Ola throughout time, frequently informing the Bennet family of any new developments. But in the end, the search for the dog was unsuccessful.
The miracle Valerya had been praying for came ten years later, when she already had another cat and had discovered Ola. “I started crying when they told me he had been OK.”
As Valerya reflects, “I had no idea it would really happen; it was fantastic.” A small puppy was found about 21 kilometers from Valerya’s home by a group of local kids. Due to a microchip, the staff at the vet’s office was able to track down the dog’s owners after they took it there.
The next day, Valerya returned to retrieve her pet and took him home. Ola astonished him by recognizing every one of his family right away. She also made fast friends with a different Bennet dog.
