The Alaskan husky wandered alone near Snowville for 12 days:
An Alaskan husky was found safe Thursday -- 12 days after his owner died in a rollover accident on Interstate 84 near Snowville.
Medical personnel, responding to an April 4 accident, found Joyce Moore's body 50 feet from her rolled vehicle. She had rolled her car en route to Michigan to visit her son.
Her dog, Neo, was sitting by the wreckage of her car "like he was waiting for his owner to come back," said Utah Highway Patrol Lt. Lee Perry.

How sad.
Poor fellow, stood by his “mom” until help arrived. Glad there’s a home waiting for him.
This one needs a tissue alert!
What a great puppy. Dogs are the BEST! My heart bleeds for this little one.
I would like to think that my cat would show some loyalty to me if I should die but I suspect she'll remain under the bed hiding when they retrieve my body for the funeral.......
FWIW, I have a note pinned to the refrigerator door that says in the event of my death, my cat's hiding under the bed. Giver her a good home.........
Some cats would eat you.
This image provided by the Utah Highway Patrol the searchers who helped to locate Neo on Thursday. From left to right is Parry Nielsen, Dana and Ellen love with Neo in front of them and Cathy Crowder. Neo, was wearing the same harness and name tag shown in photos recovered from the crashed SUV of Joyce Moore of Kelso, Wash. Moore was killed when her SUV rolled April 4 on Interstate 84 in Box Elder County. Perry says her dog stood nearby as rescue crews attended to Moore, but fled when someone tried to catch him.
Not mine, she's too finicky...........
My son brought two dogs home from AK when he moved back to NY. One of them was stolen while they were out hunting. The other lived to be a good old age and was a wonderful pet. Even at the end he tried to go upstairs to sleep with them when his arthritis was so bad.
Condolences to Joyce Moore’s family and friends. Hooray Neo!
