Never give up on your lost dog

Many Nomads consider their dogs family members and are devastated when they go missing, as many past posts show. This link shows a happy ending to one owner and reason to never loose hope.

That is a great story!

I saw the owner being reunited with his puppy on the news! He was so amazed and the dog looked plenty happy. This is indeed a really good story.

Was a dog, I believe the Phillipines, got separated from the vehicle, waited in the area for 6 mo's, before his owner saw a tv bit on the perro

Yes, fine and dandy and all but how do you not notice your dog is no longer onboard and just go home? Obviously they didn't look very hard, or at all.

Sorry for hijacking thread with a little humor

This a terrific serious tread but I feel like laughing about another dog story:

A guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'Talking Dog For Sale 'He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.

The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there.

'You talk?' he asks.

'Yep,' the Lab replies.

After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says 'So, what's your story?'

The Lab looks up and says, 'Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so... I told the CIA.

In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping.'
'I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running...

But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals.'
'I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired.'

The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.

'Ten dollars,' the guy says.

'Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'

'Because he's a Bullchitter. He's never been out of the yard'

I've been to SCI and it's in the middle of the F'in ocean. How that dog was able to make it to shore is amazing, 'specially if it came ashore on the exposed side of the island.

If I read the article right, it says the guy stayed in the area looking for a couple of days.

Way to go Fido!!!!!!!

I won't hijack the thread...but the punchline of my dog joke is "I've never had five dollars before!".
