4. Last August, a guy was on a camping trip near Lake Tahoe when his dog got startled by someone and ran off. The dog’s name is Russ, and he’s a three-year-old pitbul mix. He was missing for four months until a random skier spotted him on December 16th.
It was freezing out, and Russ was curled up in the snow under a tree. So he wouldn’t have made it through the night. But an animal rescue group managed to catch him. Then they used his microchip to track down the owner, and Russ is now back home.
