Within 14 hours, they received a call that changed everything.<\/p>\n<p>Millie had run 10 miles north to Harlem, where she was struck by a car before being transported an additional 15 miles to a <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/vet-care-services-pet-parents-vetique-veg-bond-vet\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">veterinary hospital<\/a><\/span>\u00a0in Paramus, New Jersey. The hospital had also uploaded Millie&#8217;s picture to the same free platform, which is run by donations.<\/p>\n<h2>How pet tracker technology works<\/h2>\n<p>The technology works by identifying unique features of each animal \u2014 from eye shape and whisker length to unusual markings and tail curvature. The AI system collects up to 512 data points per pet, using machine learning to search for matching animals.<\/p>\n<p>A key advantage of the system is its ability to recognize pets even when their appearance changes dramatically after getting lost. The database also pulls lost pet reports from social media posts to increase the odds of a successful match.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People used to put flyers on a telephone pole. Now we have that one virtual telephone pole in the system,&#8221; Kogut said. &#8220;Everyone put the flyers there and we&#8217;re going to send these pets home!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>More than 3,000 animal shelters nationwide now participate in the program, which is funded entirely by donations. The nonprofit advises pet owners to be cautious of potential scams when using the service. They recommend being wary of anyone requesting money to return a lost pet and suggest limiting communications to the site&#8217;s secure platform.<\/p>\n<p>Two months after her ordeal and while recovering from a broken leg, Millie is back with Bown and adjusting well to life at home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She likes to say &#8216;hi&#8217; to every single dog that we see on the walk, regardless of if they want to say &#8216;hi&#8217; to her,&#8221; Bown said. &#8220;But she&#8217;s doing really well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"chartbeat\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation component--type-recirculation-collection\">\n<div class=\"component__heading-wrapper\">\n<h3 class=\"component__title\">AI: Artificial Intelligence<\/h3>\n<p>                      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/feature\/ai-artificial-intelligence\/?intcid=CNI-00-10aaa3a\" class=\"component__view-more component__view-more--lg\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><br \/>\n              More<br \/>\n              <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"icon__caret-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-caret-down\"\/>\n              <\/svg><br \/>\n            <\/a>\n                  <\/div>\n<p>                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/feature\/ai-artificial-intelligence\/?intcid=CNI-00-10aaa3a\" class=\"component__view-more component__view-more--sm\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><br \/>\n            More<br \/>\n            <svg viewbox=\"0 0 32 32\" class=\"icon__caret-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n              <use xlink:href=\"#icon-caret-down\"\/>\n            <\/svg><br \/>\n          <\/a><br \/>\n                    <\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/ash-har-quraishi\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Ash-har  Quraishi<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__image\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/ash-har-quraishi\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\"><br \/>\n              <span class=\"img \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2024\/05\/17\/74a9d79e-a16c-47b8-b733-a0dc43c0d399\/thumbnail\/80x80\/9556896e5ced06e30fc883c46340a33e\/ash-har-quraishi-2024-2.jpg?v=5bc79e41160fef925ca37e685496f706#\" alt=\"ash-har-quraishi-2024-2.jpg \" height=\"80\" width=\"80\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2024\/05\/17\/74a9d79e-a16c-47b8-b733-a0dc43c0d399\/thumbnail\/80x80\/9556896e5ced06e30fc883c46340a33e\/ash-har-quraishi-2024-2.jpg?v=5bc79e41160fef925ca37e685496f706 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2024\/05\/17\/74a9d79e-a16c-47b8-b733-a0dc43c0d399\/thumbnail\/160x160\/fcd4e05e68040f376ce2bdac8f72e268\/ash-har-quraishi-2024-2.jpg?v=5bc79e41160fef925ca37e685496f706 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><br \/>\n            <\/a>\n          <\/div>\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Ash-har Quraishi is a consumer correspondent based in Chicago.
