Lost Dog comes home after 8 years

Tracy WOODWARD / THE WASHINGTON POST  
In Fredericksburg VA, a pit bull named Petunia was returned home after 8 years and a 2,700 mile journey.
In 2003 Petunia disapeared one morning when her family let her out to run around on the families alpaca farm like they did every day. When she never returned home they assumed she was dead or forced into a dog fighting ring.
She was found 8 years later by a wildlife biologist camping in the Spencerville Wildlife area in California. Luckily Petunia was micro chipped so she was returned safely home. She has several scars but the family thinks it is just from barbed wire fencing not dog fighting.

  1. Keep the post coming, I'ts nice to know that when I am overwhelmed by my Google reader that I can come here and hear a good story with positive commentary. Now it's back to reading about how white everyone in the GOP primary is.
