7/15/26 MCAS FB (Garbanzo's reunion video can be seen on the Multnomah County Animal Services Facebook site)
"Reunited: Bubba the Dog (Garbanzo - 385891)
You
all know and love him as Garbanzo, our sweet, long-term resident who
has been waiting patiently for an adopter since the end of February. But
today, his story took the most unbelievable turn!
We
recently received a call from his original owner, who had been missing
him for a very long time. Garbanzo's real name is Bubba!
When
Bubba arrived at the shelter this past February, he was in the care of a
different person. His original owner mentioned that Bubba had been
impounded at our shelter once before, way back in late 2023, but that he
had since been lost for a long time. Our staff dug into the archives,
compared the intake photos, and sure enough... Garbanzo is Bubba. It was
a perfect match!
Today,
Bubba’s family came to MCAS to finally bring him home. We captured this
tearful, beautiful reunion on video, and there wasn’t a dry eye.
We
want to send a massive THANK YOU to all the volunteers, staff, and
supporters who loved, walked, and tirelessly advocated for "Garbanzo."
You kept his spirits high and his tail wagging until he was found, and
it was time for him to go back home. Happy life, Bubba! Welcome home"

Garbanzo is a handsome guy with a sensitive soul and a heart of gold. He
takes a moment to warm up to new faces, but the way to this
wallflower's heart is simple: good snacks and a gentle approach. Once he
feels comfortable, his shy exterior melts away to reveal a happy,
wiggly best friend. If you're looking for a loyal companion and don't
mind taking things a little slow at first, Garbanzo is ready to find his
perfect match! 🐾🦴✨
