Key FactsFelix travelled alone by train from Brandizzo to Turin
Aug 4, 2026 · Reading time: ~30 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: wantedinmilan.com
  • Felix boarded a regional train in Brandizzo at 05.30, and passengers and rail staff alerted railway police at Porta Susa.

  • Because the dog had no collar and the first microchip scan failed, police handed him to Turin’s local police, who arranged transport to an ENPA-run municipal kennel.

  • A second scan at around 07.00 identified him as Felix, registered to a woman living in Monteu da Po but cared for by her son in Brandizzo.

  • According to La Stampa, Felix escaped through an open door while his caregiver slept and was reunited with his family within hours after railway police intervened.
