That is an amazing story.

That dog is a lot tougher than he looks to survive four years in the wilderness by himself.

Too bad he can’t talk - bet he would have some stories to tell...

I am glad he is now reunited with his owners.

Wonderful story. Very happy for the couple and their doggy. Can you imagine the things he experienced?

Wonderful!

As an aside, the dog food companies would have you believe that your dog will die if you don’t feed them kibble.

Seems like they’ll do just fine catching, killing and eating the (raw) meat, organs and bones of wild animals.
