A 61-year-old Healdsburg man returned home Wednesday afternoon after he was missing for more than a day and a half, police said.

Marc Rodriguez came back about 1 p.m., about 39 hours after he was last seen late Monday at his home, Healdsburg Police Department Police Chief Matt Jenkins said.

Rodriguez had been visiting someone out of town, Jenkins said.

Police had issued a previous statement about 12:30 a.m. Wednesday asking for residents to look out for Rodriguez, who was believed to have had the family’s Goldendoodle, Penny.

Penny is also home, Jenkins said.
