Pedro is our hero. Our French Bulldog was missing for 27 days and because of Pedro we were able to bring him home. We got truly lucky finding Pedro who went above and beyond to find our dog. I couldn't have asked for a better partner and investigator to assist in our search. Thank you Pedro, for bringing our family back together.
