BOONE COUNTY, Ky. —
Nine days. That's how long this stuffed animal dog was on its own little vacation at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.
You may remember seeing this cute fella flooding your Facebook and Twitter feeds. A stuffed spotted dog was left behind at the airport.
“We posted on social media and after a few posts, we reached more than 1 million people,” said CVG Spokesperson Mindy Kershner.
Airport officials launched a massive effort to return the pup to its owner.
Airport personnel gave the stuffed pup the Cincinnati experience, behind the scenes tours of the airport terminal, plane cockpits and of course showed him Cincinnati’s own ice cream.
“We introduced him to Graeter's Ice Cream—he's never had that before!" said Kershner.
As it turns out, the stuffed animal, named Masch Masch, isn't your average toy.
He belongs to 6-year-old Florida resident Jaydence Ronco, who, along with his two brothers, Sully and Corbin, was adopted.
