Dog gone? Arizona State football’s Cam Skattebo loses pup, but Tempe rallies behind him

After giving Tempe plenty of reason for pride the past two seasons, star Arizona State football running back Cam Skattebo finally needed Tempe’s help.

He made that much clear in an X post of his dog Wednesday night, explaining that the pup was lost and that he believed the dog was stolen. He was not 100% sure the dog was actually stolen, but promised a “HUGE REWARD” regardless if the pup was found:

The dog went missing at around 4:30 p.m., and Skattebo made the post almost an hour and a half from that time. Sun Devil nation went on the lookout. One fan suggested the Nextdoor app.

Sure enough, Skattebo revealed that Nextdoor is what worked:

Skattebo posted that the dog was indeed found just 37 minutes after his original post. He even told a fan that the dog was not stolen, but just somehow found his way out:

A quick look through the comments and quotes on the original post shows how many across the Valley were invested in Skattebo finding his dog, and Skattebo did thank Tempe.

Skattebo’s mission was accomplished, and he did not even need to channel John Wick in his mission — although he did come close.
