Drone To Home CEO Phil James said Molly’s owner believed they would never find Molly again and feared she may have died.
The team was called on the third day of Molly’s disappearance and she was quickly found.
Phil said he was touched by the touching moment after watching the recorded video.
He said: “I don’t get emotional often but the lab brought tears to my eyes, I have to admit.” “I’m really pleased the owners are over the moon.”
He began the mission in 2019 with just himself and a drone.
“I funded it myself until I registered as a charity on April 29, 2022 and to date we have reunited 2,487 dogs, three ponies, an emu, a skunk and nine cows,” he said.
“We receive an average of approximately 40 calls and messages per day through our virtual call center and we have 11 trained volunteers answering the telephone calls.”
“We all love what we do and have the best job in the world.”
