A Doberman named B.A. has been reunited with his owner — seven years after he ran off during a thunderstorm.

Dan Kesler, now an assistant swim coach at Arizona State University, lost his dog while living in Durham, N.C.

He’d moved repeatedly since then, but had kept the same cell phone number, allowing humane society officials in North Carolina to get in touch with him when B.A. — who was microchipped — ended up in a shelter.

The dog was found wandering the streets of Durham, North Carolina last month, according to Fox 10 in Phoenix.

Kesler said he’d almost given up hope of ever seeing his dog again.

“The first night I spent outside waiting for him to come back, because I honestly thought he would come back that night. Within a week I thought he would show up, but but then as weeks turned into months and months turned into years … did I think he’d be back? I can’t say yes. But I never gave up hope.”

Kesler was contacted by the North Carolina shelter about four weeks ago, and B.A. was flown to Arizona at the beginning of the month.
