Only 17 percent of lost pets get reunited with their owners nationwide. The Brandywine Valley SPCA is the first animal shelter in the Philadelphia area to use facial recognition software to help reunite more lost pets with their owners. Linda Torelli, Marketing Director of the Brandywine Valley SPCA joins KYW In Depth to talk about how it works and how the technology can help boost that percentage, why the national reunite rate is so low, and whether all the fireworks that have been going off lately have contributed to the lost pet rate.
