Has anyone seen the news item about the blue heeler dog who was washed overboard and separated from her family during a boating trip? "Sophie Tucker" apparently swam 6 miles to a remote island, where she survived for four months, hunting for her own food. Upon being reunited with her family, she made a seamless return to life as a house dog.
I'm amazed at her adaptability. Her story is like Jack London's novels The Call of the Wild and White Fang rolled into one.
