A pit bull found wandering on Interstate 880 in East Oakland has been reunited with her owner, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Piglet the puppy was found on the freeway near 66th Avenue about 6 p.m. Wednesday.
CHP officers in Oakland took to social media, posting pictures of the dog on its Facebook page sitting in the back of a CHP patrol SUV, her front paws dangling over an open rear window, her big pink tongue hanging out.
Shes very sweet and clearly has been taken care of by someone, Officer Sean Wilkenfeld wrote. We found her with a red collar but no tags.
On Thursday, the dogs owner Jose Rosas spotted Piglets photo online and called the CHP.

Piglet was reunited (Thursday) evening and was given the honorary title of Junior Officer for her bravery, Wilkenfeld wrote. She was even brave enough to go for one last ride in a patrol car before we headed off!
