A man whose home was destroyed in the Palisades Fire had a tearful reunion with his beloved dog after it ran away amid evacuation orders. Casey Colvin broke down in tears when a dog tracker helped him locate his pooch, Oreo, on Sunday. The pooch was spotted sleeping among the debris and rubble that left what was once Colvin’s neighbor’s house.
With a squeaky toy in one hand and his other dog under his other arm, Colvin approached the gate of his neighbor’s home, where Oreo was sitting atop the driveway. Coaxing Oreo to approach him, Colvin’s sweet coos convinced Oreo to head down the driveway and into his owner’s arms. Overcome with emotion, Colvin yelled and cheered that his pet was back with him. Filled with gratitude, Colvin also thanked NBC News Correspondent Liz Kreutz, who captured the heartwarming reunion on video.Authorities are warning residents about an increased in wildlife sightings as animals flee from the wildfires burning in Southern California.
