A woman in Minnesota ended up finding her dog that was lost three years ago and it's all because of a Bradenton brewery. Motorworks Brewery started putting the faces of adoptable dogs from a local shelter on its cans at a "Yappy Hour” event, which also raised funds for local animal charities. Monica Mathis says she was scrolling through Facebook when she saw the story about Motorworks and recognized her lost dog on the can. Mathis was able to provide paperwork to prove to Manatee County Animal Services that the dog was hers. "Once I got the confirmation I just couldn’t believe that this was actually my dog," said Mathis.

Monica's dog is the second from the left in the picture below.
