Talk about a lucky German shepherd! She could have drowned, been eaten by a shark, died of exposure, starvation, or dehydration.

Should have been wearing a life vest though.

Glad to hear she was rescued. She is incredibly lucky not to have drowned or become shark snax.

Mine have all acted like puppies until they are 2 years old or so.

She may have swam to shore right away. They just couldn’t find her. She was undernourished and was probably hiding for awhile.

“On Tuesday morning, as Navy staff headed to work at SCI, they spotted Luna sitting next to the road. The pup, as her owner hoped, had somehow managed to make it ashore”
